Cutaneous tuberculosis is a rare form of tuberculosis that infects the skin through direct inoculation or hematogenous spread. It can present in several forms including tuberculids, lupus vulgaris, scrofuloderma, orificial tuberculosis, and acute miliary tuberculosis. Diagnosis is based on medical history, physical exam showing characteristic lesions, positive tuberculin test, and biopsy revealing epithelioid granulomas. Treatment involves a combination of antitubercular medications for at least 6-12 months.
