ABSTRACT
An 18-year-old boy presented with a rare association of a thyroid tubercular abscess and bilateral symmetrical hilar lymphadenopathy. He was put on a Category I regimen with standard short course daily chemotherapy of four anti-tubercular drugs under the National Tuberculosis Programme. After a six-month of anti-tubercular treatment (ATT), the boy showed clinical and bacteriological improvement. The thyroid scan with Technetium 99 (Tc 99) and the chest skiagram also became normal.
