Cutaneous tuberculosis is a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, comprising 1-2% of cases. Caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis or related strains, it presents a wide range of clinical manifestations, mimicking other chronic dermatoses and leading to delayed diagnosis. A case of scrofuloderma is reported, whose diagnosis and treatment were only made six years after onset of the disease.
皮肤结核是肺外结核的一种罕见形式，占病例的1%-2%。由结核分枝杆菌或相关菌株引起，它表现出广泛的临床表现，类似于其他慢性皮肤病，导致诊断延迟。本文报告1例皮肤瘰疬病例，其诊断和治疗在疾病发作6年后才得以进行。
