Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) may involve cutaneous tissue in approximately 0.1%–0.5% of the cases. There are various morphological presentations of cutaneous TB such as lupus vulgaris (LV), scrofuloderma, TB verrucosa cutis, and tuberculids. Usually, a single form is observed in an individual, but coexistence of the multiple forms has been rarely reported in the literature. These concurrences may be considered an interesting immunological phenomenon as two immunologically different poles are occurring simultaneously. We present a case of LV and scrofuloderma in the same patient at different sites.
寻常狼疮和阴囊皮病共存在一个免疫功能正常的病人:一个罕见的表现
约0.1%-0.5%的病例可累及皮肤组织。皮肤结核有多种形态表现,如寻常性狼疮(LV)、阴囊皮病、皮肤疣状结核和结核。通常,在个体中观察到一种形式,但多种形式的共存在文献中很少报道。这些并发可能被认为是一个有趣的免疫学现象,因为两个免疫学上不同的极点同时发生。我们提出一个病例的左室和硬皮病在同一患者在不同的部位。
