Perinatal tuberculosis is insufficiently understood and has been rarely reported even in areas endemic for the disease, and unless a high index of suspicion is maintained the diagnosis can be missed. Differentiation of congenital from early postnatally acquired tuberculosis is only of epidemiological importance. We hereby report one case of congenital tuberculosis and three cases of perinatal tuberculosis, and problems faced during investigation and management and emphasize need for improved screening of women at risk and sensitization of the medical community about this entity.
