In Portugal, 1751 cases of extrapulmanary tuberculosis were registered in the year of 1995.A high index of suspicion for the diagnosis is necessary, due to the insidious and nonspecific clinical manifestations.The authors make a review of the most relevent forms of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, its most pertinent diagnostic methods and some therapeutic considerations.REV PORT PNEUMOL 1999; V (1): 75-89
