Nasopharyngeal tuberculosis is increasingly frequent and poses a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Through a retrospective study spread out over 4 years, we brought back six cases of nasopharyngeal tuberculosis, including two men and four women of an average age of 41 years. The diagnosis was made, for all of our patients, after histologic study when we found typical tuberculosis lesions on biopsy specimens. The diagnosis of tuberculosis was established; all patients had an antituberculosis medical treatment in a department of infectious diseases. In all cases, the long-term evolution was favourable, with an average passing of 11 months.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
