Abstract
Cutaneous tuberculosis is an uncommon small subset of extra pulmonary tuberculosis. Erythema nodosum is a form of panniculitis frequently seen in women that presents as red lumps commonly seen in shins. It is associated with numerous diseases such as tuberculosis, pregnancy, malignancy, streptococcal infections and sarcoidosis or can be even drug related. Here we report a case series of two cases of erythema nodosum presenting as sign of primary tuberculosis.
