The first patient was a 31-year-old female complaining of sore throat. Ulcers found in the nasopharynx resembled malignant tumor. A biopsy was taken using a nasopharyngoscope. The pathological diagnosis revealed tuberculosis of the nasopharynx. The second patient was a 36-year-old female and the third patient was a 33-year-old female. Ulcers with white coating were seen in the first two cases and a mass lesion was seen in the remaining case. Chest X-rays of all three patients were clear. Therefore they were diagnosed with primary nasopharyngeal tuberculosis. Treatment with antituberculosis agents greatly reduced the ulcers and the mass.
