Nasal tuberculosis is a rare clinical entity even in developing countries where tuberculosis of respiratory tract is extremely high. It becomes more difficult to diagnose if it presents with symptoms which are not commonly associated with nasal tuberculosis. Here we report the diagnosis, treatment and follow up of a rare case of primary nasal tuberculosis of olfactory groove region. Early diagnosis and timely treatment will certainly reduce the morbidity of this disease.
