A bouba terciária se desenvolve em <10% dos indivíduos infectados não tratados após um intervalo de 5 anos ou mais. As lesões cutâneas em estágio avançado são caracterizadas por nódulos gomatosos com destruição de tecido necrótico, seguido por cicatriz debilitante e contratura. A osteíte destrutiva pode resultar em ulceração do palato e da nasofaringe ("gangosa") ou arqueamento da tíbia (canelas de sabre). A periostite hipertrófica em localizações periarticulares pode levar à exostose da maxila paranasal ("goundou").
