Abstract
Papulonecrotic tuberculid is characterized by the formation of small infiltrates in the skin, ranging in size from millet grain to lentils, protruding slightly above the skin, dense to the touch, usually not giving any subjective sensations, yellowish pink in fresh cases, later bluish brown. This process is localized mainly on the extensor surfaces of the limbs and leaves behind pigmented scars. The rash does not erupt immediately, and we see at the same time both younger and older rashes, scars and pigmentation at the site of the disappeared elements. In the center of some efflorescences, yellow dots are noted, resembling a pustule, but containing no pus, but a necrotic mass. These yellow dots gradually turn into a greyish brown crust. Sometimes papules dissolve without a trace, but more often they leave behind a deep pigmented scar. Subsequently, the pigmentation disappears and white scars remain. The disease lasts for years in the form of separate outbreaks.
