A unique case of bilateral sternoclavicular tuberculosis is presented, with discussion of the possible mechanism of infection.

is mandatory (especially in immunocompromised patients and migrant populations). Computed tomography and magnetic resonance
imaging are helpful for defining the exact extent of the disease.
