Tuberculosis is an endemic disease in Morocco caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Cutaneous forms are rare, they account for 1-2% of extra-pulmonary localizations of tuberculosis. The diagnosis of cutaneous TB often poses a challenge to clinicians because of its clinical polymorphism and it is based by histology, QuantiFERON-TB Gold test, and polymerase chain reaction. Treatment consists of a combination of antibiotics. Herein we report a case report of an atypical clinical and dermoscopical presentation of cutaneous tuberculosis.
