Gastrointestinal localizations of tuberculosis account for approximately 1% of cases of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis, and anoperineal localizations are sporadically reported in the literature. In this article, we present a case of tuberculous anal fistula in 64-year-old male, which showed favorable evolution with medico-surgical treatment. Establishing the diagnosis of anal localization is not always easy. We also discuss the diagnostic modalities and management approaches for this pathology.
