Abstract
Tuberculous dactylitis is an unusual form of osteoarticular tuberculosis involving the short tubular bones of hands and feet. We report the case of a three-year-old female child who was diagnosed with tuberculous dactylitis, involving metacarpal of hand. Her diagnosis was delayed due to lack of suspicion of this rare entity. The report also examines the diagnostic difficulties faced by clinicians in arriving at an accurate diagnosis.
