 AB    A patient with AIDs who presented with pulmonary tuberculosis and
       cervical scrofuloderma developed a widespread eruption of lichenoid
       papules shortly after commencing antituberculous therapy. The clinical
       and histological features in this case were consistent with lichen
       scrofulosorum even though the tuberculin test was negative. To our
       knowledge this is the first reported case of lichen scrofulosorum in an
       HIV positive patient. The lesions cleared following 8 weeks of
       antituberculous therapy.
