Unusual Presentation of Tuberculosis in Oral Cavity : A Case Report

Abstract

Tuberculosis is a chronic disease which is still prevalent in developing countries like India. Although it is mainly a pulmonary disease with extra pulmonary manifestations, oral manifestations are not common. We are presenting a case in which tuberculous ulcers were present in oral cavity in more than one location and resembled carcinoma. Medical history is very much important and conditions which may have similar clinical pictures should be ruled out before.
