Tuberculosis of the nose is very rare. When it does occur, it almost always arises secondary to primary pulmonary tuberculosis. Nasal tuberculosis is most common in women older than 20 years. We report the case of a 16-year-old girl who presented with epistaxis, fever, submental swelling, and enlargement of multiple cervical and axillary lymph nodes. The patient was diagnosed with tuberculous granuloma of the nose and tuberculous lymphadenopathy. She was successfully treated with a 6-month regimen of standard antituberculous therapy.
鼻结核非常罕见。当它确实发生时，几乎总是继发于原发性肺结核。鼻结核在20岁以上的女性中最为常见。我们报告了一例16岁女孩的病例，她出现鼻出血、发热、颏下肿胀以及多个颈部和腋窝淋巴结肿大。该患者被诊断为鼻结核性肉芽肿和结核性淋巴结病。她通过6个月的标准抗结核治疗方案成功治愈。
