Rhinoscleroma is a rare entity encountered in anesthesia practice. We discuss the management of a patient after its recurrence, involving the upper respiratory tract i.e. nasopharynx and oropharynx, which compromised the airway. The pateint was referred for anesthesia on three different occasions with different presentations owing to the recurrence of symptoms.The presence of an oropharyngeal membrane with a small opening made airway management a challenge. The patient was successfully managed on all three occasions. Imaging facilitated assessment and subsequent airway management.
鼻硬结病是麻醉实践中遇到的一种罕见病症。我们讨论了一名患者复发后涉及上呼吸道即鼻咽和口咽的处理情况，这对上呼吸道造成了损害。由于症状复发，该患者在三个不同场合因不同表现被转诊接受麻醉。口咽膜存在且有一个小开口使得气道管理成为一项挑战。该患者在所有三次场合均得到了成功处理。影像学检查有助于评估及后续的气道管理。
