  • Title: Primary nasal tuberculosis.
    Author: Hup AK, Haitjema T, de Kuijper G.
    Journal: Rhinology; 2001 Mar; 39(1):47-8. PubMed ID: 11340696.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of a patient with primary nasal tuberculosis. Although this is a rare finding, it should be considered when a patient presents with a nasal obstruction. Smears for acid fast bacilli and cultures tend to be negative in nasal tuberculosis. Diagnosis is often based on histo- pathologic findings. Nasal TB is known to respond well to the regular treatment for (pulmonary) tuberculosis.
