description | Recent advances in chemotherapy have reduced the incidence of upper respiratory tract tuberculosis. Tuberculosis of the nose is mainly by secondary infection to pulmonary tuberculosis via contagious, hematogenous or lymphatic routes. Primary infection of the nose is rare but possible when self-cleansing mechanism and lysosomal activity, of the nose is lost. A 45-year-old Korean woman with the chief complaints of nasal obstruction, crusting, and recurrent episodes of epistaxis is presented. Physical examination of the nose revealed friable, easily bleeding masses with crusts on both sides of the septum. The appearance and consistency of the lesions were different from those of nasal polyps. Chest and sinu X-rays revealed no active lesions. Tuberculin skin test was positive and the biopsied specimen proved to be consistent with tuberculosis. Her condition improved after anti-tuberculous medication for about 6 months. |
