ABSTRACT
Isolated tuberculosis of cuneiform is rare in literature. Diagnosis of tuberculosis of cuneiform remains a dilemma because of its rarity in the lower limb. Chance of misdiagnosis and delay in diagnosis may add to morbidity. Presumptive diagnosis can be made on the basis of X-ray, MRI, histopathology of the pathological tissue, which reveals granulomatous inflammation with or without caseation. Here we are reporting a case of 15 year old girl with swelling and pain over a mid foot diagnosed as tuberculosis of cuneiform on subsequent X-ray, MRI and biopsy.
