    This case study details papulo-necrotic tuberculids exclusively on the glans penis. Diagnosis was confirmed through a positive Mantoux test, histology, and successful treatment with anti-tuberculous drugs.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Tuberculids are cutaneous manifestations of tuberculosis.
    • Genital involvement is rare, with penile presentation being exceptionally uncommon.

    Observation:

    • A unique case of papulo-necrotic tuberculids localized solely to the glans penis is presented.
    • The patient exhibited characteristic skin lesions on the penis.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination revealed findings consistent with tuberculids.
    • A positive Mantoux test indicated a cellular immune response to tuberculosis antigens.
    • The lesions showed significant improvement following treatment with anti-tuberculous medications.

    Implications:
