Abstract:
Nasal tuberculosis represents a rare manifestation of infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a case is presented together with a review of the literature. The correct management is documented, especially the need to treat the patients as if there was a generalized condition, and the problems concerning drug resistance are also considered. The incidence of this disease is rising and its importance must once again be highlighted.
