    Area of Science:

    • Otorhinolaryngology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Rhinoscleroma is a chronic infectious granulomatous disease.
    • It is caused by the bacterium Klebsiella Rhinoscleromatising.
    • The condition commonly affects the nose and larynx, leading to stenosis and scarring.

    Observation:

    • This report details the first imported case of rhinoscleroma documented in Belgium.
    • A patient presenting with rhinoscleroma underwent treatment in our department.

    Findings:

    • Rhinoscleroma is characterized by a chronic granulomatous inflammatory process.
    • The disease can result in significant tissue stenosis and scarring.
    • Nasal and laryngeal localizations are most common.

    Implications:

    • Early diagnosis and antibiotic therapy are essential for effective rhinoscleroma treatment.
    • Late-stage rhinoscleroma management may be primarily palliative.
    • This case highlights the importance of recognizing imported infectious diseases in clinical practice.
