Abstract:
Scrofuloderma, a rare form of cutaneous tuberculosis (CTB), typically arises from underlying tuberculous lymphadenitis. Although CTB comprises only 1%-2% of extrapulmonary cases, its burden may be underestimated in endemic countries, such as Nepal, leading to delayed diagnosis and increased morbidity. We present the case of a 14-year-old girl with a painless, ulcerated lesion in the intermammary region for 3 months, histopathologically diagnosed as scrofuloderma.
