Tuberculosis is a global health problem mainly affecting people in developing countries although muscular involvement is rarely seen. Authors hereby, describe a case of tuberculosis of triceps muscle in a 35-year-old immunocompetent female who presented with swelling in right upper arm.

ZN stain for acid fast bacilli was positive. Based on the above ndings a diagnosis of tuberculosis of triceps muscle was made. The patient responded well to antituberculosis therapy and is currently on follow up.
