ABSTRACT
Although tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease that can occur in any section of the body, oral tuberculosis is rare. Here, we report a case of oral tuberculosis in which the patient sought treatment for a painful oral lesion. A histopathologic examination revealed the characteristics of tuberculosis and pulmonary lesions were detected on subsequent examination. The patient was treated with antituberculosis therapy, and his symptoms improved. This case emphasizes the importance of including oral tuberculosis as part of the differential diagnosis for mucosal lesions.
