Abstract
A 60- year-old woman, gravid 4, para 4-0-0-4 was admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Khon Kaen University due to chronic extensive painful genital ulcer. She was treated by antiviral and antifungal regimens but the ulcer persisted. After acid fast bacilli was found on tissue biopsy, a standard 6- month course of antituberculosis was started. One month after treatment, the ulcer was completely cured.
