    Author: Park YM, Hong JK, Cho SH, Cho BK.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 1998 May; 38(5 Pt 2):841-3. PubMed ID: 9591799.
    Abstract:
    We describe a patient in whom two tuberculids, lichen scrofulosorum, and erythema induratum occurred simultaneously. The clinical and histopathologic features were characteristic and a Mantoux test showed a positive reaction. There was no extracutaneous focus of tuberculosis. Polymerase chain reaction for mycobacteria in the skin lesions was negative, but her lesions responded rapidly to antituberculous chemotherapy.
