A case with palatal presentation of scleroma is presented due to its rarity and unusual manifestations. The patient presented with only palatal symptoms. Nasal endoscopy revealed signs of all three stages of scleroma: catarrhal, granulomatous and sclerotic stages. Histopathology was vital in the diagnosis. The patient was treated by medical therapy, and palatal symptoms were relieved by uvulopalatopharyngoplasty.
因硬结病腭部表现罕见且有不寻常表现，故报告一例。该患者仅表现为腭部症状。鼻内镜检查发现了硬结病所有三个阶段的体征：卡他期、肉芽肿期和硬化期。组织病理学检查对诊断至关重要。该患者接受了药物治疗，腭部症状通过悬雍垂腭咽成形术得到缓解。
