Abstract

Isolatedextra pulmonary tuberculous osteomyelitis of the phalanx is rare as compared to that of proximal bones. We report acase of tubercular osteomyelitis of the middle phalanx of the toe in a 74 year old lady, presenting as post traumatic chronic ulcer which is even morerare. The difficulty in diagnosis and the related problems, the need to have a high index of suspicion of tuberculosis as one of the causes of chronic foot ulcer especially in developing countries has been emphasized.
