Disseminated Tuberculosis with involvement of prostate - A case report.

ABSTRACT

We present a 55-year-old male who presented with painful non-healing ulcers on the lower lip and scrotum associated with productive cough, fever, anorexia and dysuria. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate was raised, sputum was positive for acid fast bacilli. Chest X-ray was suggestive of pulmonary tuberculosis. A prostate biopsy was also suggestive of tuberculosis. A diagnosis of disseminated tuberculosis was made and the patient showed a good response in two weeks.
