A 4-year-old child with probable multifocal BCG osteomyelitis is reported. The lesions in the skull, clavicula, humerus, ribs, fibula, calcaneus, metatarsus, and hard palate were mainly osteolytic and healed rapidly with antituberculotic therapy. This is the first time that involvement of the hard palate has been described.
