Article Synopsis
- Tuberculosis is prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, but cutaneous tuberculosis is rare and often misdiagnosed due to its varied symptoms and limited diagnostic tools.
- A study in Bamako, Mali, analyzed 4269 patient records from 1991 to 2008, identifying 61 cases of cutaneous tuberculosis, predominantly among men, with varying clinical forms including scrofuloderma and ulcerative types.
- The findings indicate a need for better diagnostic access and equipment to address the underdiagnosis of cutaneous tuberculosis in Mali.
