Abstract
An unusual case of skeletal tuberculosis, presenting as a hard swelling and sclerotic lesion in the medial end of the clavicle is presented. With re-emergence of tuberculosis as an important infection worldwide, and the ability of this disease to mimic many skeletal pathologies, this has to be included in the differential diagnosis, especially at unusual sites.Entities:
