    Abstract:
    We present a case of disseminated tuberculosis (pulmonary, skeletal and lymph nodes) accompanied by subcutaneous abscesses and with unusual localization, osteolytic lesions of the skull caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis var. hominis. Although the patient was immunocompetent, the disease had a gradual and unexpected progression. In the malign forms of tuberculosis, treatment must be extended for a year or more.
