description Lupus vulgaris is a one of the most common skin infections in the Indian subcontinent. Even today, it often creates a diagnostic dilemma for both clinicians and histopathologists.

Our aim is to make clinicians and dermatopathologists aware of this pattern of inflammation seen in this common infection.
