Tuberculosis verrucosa cutis (TBVC) is a common paucibacillary form of cutaneous tuberculosis caused by exogenous reinfection in previously sensitized individuals. The typical morphology is usually observed as a single verrucous plaque with inflammatory borders mostly on the hands, knees, ankle, and buttocks; however, several atypical morphologies of the lesions have also been described. TBVC occurring in sporotrichoid pattern is relatively rare. We report a case of a rare sporotrichoid presentation of TBVC in a 38-year-old male patient in the absence of any primary tuberculous focus.
寻常狼疮(TBVC)是一种常见的、由外源性再感染引起的、菌量少的皮肤结核,发生于既往已致敏的个体。典型的形态通常表现为单个疣状斑块,伴炎症性边界,主要见于手部、膝部、踝部和臀部;然而,病变也有几种非典型形态。孢子丝菌样的 TBVC 相对少见。我们报告了 1 例 38 岁男性患者罕见的孢子丝菌样 TBVC 病例,该患者无任何原发性结核病灶。
