Buruli ulcer is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans and considered the third mycobacteriosis in occurrence after leprosy and tuberculosis, having been detected in more than 30 countries. We report a case of this rare disease, highlighting the morphological findings and complementary techniques useful for early diagnosis and consequent prevention of aesthetic and functional sequels.
