Tubercular cold abscesses secondary to neighbouring bone involvement are a well-known clinical manifestation of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. However, primary soft tissue tuberculous abscesses with no pulmonary involvement in immuno-competent patients are very uncommon. A rare case of multiple primary intrathoracic and extraperitoneal soft tissue tuberculous abscesses and mediastinal lymph node tuberculosis with no pulmonary involvement is reported. This case demonstrates the need for a high index of suspicion for such rare presentations of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis in patients from endemic areas.
