AFB: acid-fast bacilli; ND: no data; NP: not performed; *: cutaneous tuberculosis (CTB) associated to immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. The diagnosis of CTB was based on clinical response to antituberculous treatment associated to smear** of clinical specimens or lymph node histopathologic findings***.
