Abstract
The incidence of primary nasal tuberculosis is rare. We report a case of primary nasal tuberculosis in a 59-year-old female who complained of nasal obstruction in the right nasal cavity. There was a mass lesion in the nasal septum on the right side. Her chest X-ray showed no signs of lung tuberculosis. Histopathological examination of the lesion revealed findings which were compatible with tuberculosis. The lesion was cured by the use of INH and RFP.
