Title : Dual facial localization of tuberculosis involving cavum and nasal sinus: A case report

Abstract

Tuberculosis is a hot topic and has seen an upsurge since 1986 despite efforts to eradicate it. Developed countries are now concerned with the emergence of HIV infection and the emergence of multi-resistant bacillary strains. The localization to the upper airways remains rare. Cavum tuberculosis is uncommon and its association with nasosinus tuberculosis localization is rare. It is characterized by a clinical presentation which immediately brings to mind malignant tumor pathology. The diagnosis is based on anatomopathological examination. The treatment is mainly medical based on anti-bacillary. We report a rare case of a cavum and nasosinus tuberculosis combination, whose histology was in favor of pseudo-tumor case follicular tuberculosis.
