ABSTRACT

Se presenta el primer caso publicado de rinoescleroma en un paciente chileno, con historia de tres años de evolución de obstrucción nasal izquierda que luego se hace bilateral. Es estudiado en el Policlínico de Otorrinolaringología del Hospital Barros Luco Trudeau, pesquisándose una masa en fosas nasales de aspecto polipoideo atípico. Mediante estudio histopatológico e infectológico se confirma el diagnóstico de rinoescleroma, con cultivo positivo para Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. El paciente es tratado con moxifloxacino durante seis semanas previo a la cirugía endoscópica, efectuándose resección de la patología en ambas fosas nasales. Se trata con antibiótico durante seis semanas más, quedando, a los tres meses postcirugía, con leve obstrucción nasal a izquierda secundaria a una estenosis fibrosa de coana izquierda, residual a su patología.

ABSTRACT

We present here our experience of laser for the management of stenosed oropharyngeal scleroma. The diagnosis of scleroma was made 14 years ago and the patient underwent repeated procedures like dilatation, diathermy excision of adhesions and cryosurgery during this period. He attended our out-patient department with complaints of dysphagia and difficulty in breathing, progressing to stridor. On examination, severe oropharyngeal stenosis due to cicatrization extending between the base of the tongue and the post-pharyngeal wall was seen. Using CO2 laser, cicatrix was released by making radial cuts and the oropharyngeal opening was widened. No tracheostomy was needed; no blood loss occurred and the patient was discharged on the next day.
