摘要
Tuberculoma of the cheek in the absence of tuberculosis elsewhere in the body is rarely seen and hence rarely thought of as a differential diagnosis when such a patient presents. In the following case, the patient was provisionally diagnosed as carcinoma of the cheek because of the exophytic nature of the growth and its presentation. However, histopathology of a biopsy revealed tuberculoma and the response to antituberculous therapy was rapid and curative.
