Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis masquerading as chest wall malignancy: It just never ceases to surprise us!

Abstract

It poses a significant diagnostic challenge for the physicians; therefore, a high index of suspicion should be maintained. Here we present a case of isolated chest wall tuberculosis in an immunocompetent patient.
