A 67-year-old female patient with tuberculosis of the nasopharynx is reported. The diagnosis was confirmed on histological and bacteriological examination of a biopsy from her postnasal space. There was no evidence of any other active foci of tuberculosis but she had had a right nephrectomy 45 years previously for renal tuberculosis. A review of the literature on nasopharyngeal tuberculosis shows this to be a very rare disease in the absence of active pulmonary involvement.
报告了一名67岁的鼻咽结核女性患者。通过对其后鼻孔间隙活检组织进行组织学和细菌学检查确诊。没有证据表明存在其他活动性结核病灶,但她45年前因肾结核接受了右肾切除术。对鼻咽结核文献的回顾表明,在无活动性肺部受累的情况下,这是一种非常罕见的疾病。
