A 4 year old female child presented with complaints of low graded fever associated with decreased appetite and failure to gain weight and persistent foul smelling urine. She had a positive history of contact. She was evaluated for pulmonary tuberculosis which came out to be negative. Acid fast bacilli was detected in urine, and ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed renal tuberculosis. The patient was treated with category 1 DOTS therapy.
