Abstract

Tuberculosis is a great masquerader presenting in varied forms and in atypical locations. The myriad presentations of tuberculosis may complicate its diagnosis. We present two cases of acromioclavicular joint tuberculosis treated with a regimen of antitubercular drugs for 18 months leading to a complete resolution of symptoms.
