Herein, we present a case of 44-year-old male who landed in our emergency department with altered mental status with difficulty in breathing after 14 days of consumption of chlorpyrifos. Organophosphorus (OP) poisoning is one of the most common causes of poisoning encountered in rural India. There are reported cases of its acute and sub-acute atypical presentation but very few of delayed onset intermediate syndrome. By means of this case report, we want to emphasize on the delayed complications post OP poisoning and importance of treating physician’s awareness to recognize and treat such complications.

Tuberculosis is a major health problem in India and in view of rise in the MDR tuberculosis atypical presentations are getting commoner these days and are difficult to diagnose. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis is very common among the  hematogenous spread cases of pulmonary tuberculosis involving thoracic spine the most. Involvement of sacrum and coccyx is rarest of  the possibility and isolated sacrococcygeal tuberculosis thus is very rare. Being a rare entity a high index of clinical suspicion is required to diagnose it. We hereby report a very rare case report of sacrococcygeal tuberculosis.
