Abstract

In human immunodeficiency virus-infected persons the clinical and radiographic appearance of pulmonary tuberculosis is frequently atypical, and extrapulmonary involvement is more frequent. We describe what we believe is the first case of a human immunodeficiency virus-infected person with acute miliary tuberculosis of the skin.
