We report the case of a 15 year-old boy, presenting with juxta-articular swellings and lacunar skeletal lesions associated with prolonged fever and cachexia. Among the multiple bacteriological samplings, only the trans-osseous puncture of a tibial lacunar lesions, yielded Bacillus tuberculosis. With triple anti-tuberculous chemotherapy, fever and juxta-articular swellings disappeared. However, several articular ankyloses persist, which might need a surgical correction.
