ABSTRACT
Tuberculosis dactylitis is exceptional. We report 4 cases of osteoarticular tuberculous dactylitis in 3 women and 1 man. The diagnosis was suspected on chronic and insidious clinical presentation, and confirmed by histology. Patients were treated by anti-tubercular drugs with good functional and radiological outcome in all cases. Clinical and therapeutic issues are discussed by the authors in the context of an endemic country
