چکیده
Although Tuberculosis (TB) most commonly affects the lungs, any organ or tissue can be involved. In countries with comprehensive diagnostic and reporting systems, extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) accounts for 20-25% of reported cases. Globally, extrapulmonary cases (without concurrent pulmonary involvement) comprised 14% of notified cases (new and relapse) in 2007. The most common sites of extrapulmonary tuberculosis consist of lymphatic, genitourinary, bone and joint, and central nervous system involvement followed by peritoneal and other abdominal organ involvement. We report a case of a 25 year old male patient who came with multiple discharging sinuses and an urethrocutaneous fistula over the penis treated by a therapeutic trial of Anti-tubercular therapy (ATT).
