Rhinosclerome du cavum avec expression ganglionnaire cervicale: à propos d’un cas

Rhinoscleroma is a specific granulomatous and chronic disorder with insidious evolution. It is causes by pathogen Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. It mainly occurs in the nasal cavities and positive diagnosis is sometimes problematic. We report the case of a 19 year old female patient presenting with rhinoscleroma considered atypical due to its rare nasopharyngeal localization and its exceptional association with cervical lymphadenopathy in the right submandibular angle region. Anatomopathological exam revealed Mikulicz's cells, thus enabling the diagnosis. The patient underwent antibiotic therapy with ciprofloxacin for 16 weeks associated with washing of nasal cavities with physiological saline solution. Patient's outcome was favorable during the 14-month follow-up period.
