Abstract
We describe a Mycobacterium kansasii cutaneous infection that was diagnosed in a 52-year-old female patient with sarcoidosis receiving anti-TNF agents. The diagnosis was based on the positive culture of the foot ulcerative tissue. The isolation and identification of bacterium was based on phenotypic and molecular methods. Therapy and follow-up of the patient is discussed.
