RESUMEN

Tuberculosis of upper aerodigestive tract is rare. Was to report our experience in the diagnosis and the management of this disease with a review of the literature. We carried a retrospective study between 1990 and 2005, about 10 cases. Diagnosis of tuberculosis was confirmed by histopathological examination. All patients were treated with antituberculous chemotherapy. Follow-up was based on clinical, biological and endoscopic examinations with a mean duration of 24 months. Mean age was 29 years. Nine patients were male. Clinical examination and panendoscopy showed nasal, pharyngeal and laryngeal lesions respectively in 1, 6 and 3 cases. Sputum examinations were negative in all cases. After confirming diagnosis by biopsy and anatomopathological examination, all patients received antituberculous treatment for 8 to 9 months. Nine patients were followed regularly. They had all recovered from their symptoms, and lesions had completely disappeared. Tuberculosis of upper aerodigestive tract must be suspected in front of unusual evolution of any nasal or laryngo-pharyngeal symptom. Early and well-conduced medical treatment achieves a good outcome

RESUMEN

Tuberculosis of the oral cavity is a rare event and when present is usually secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis. We present a case of a 33-year-old male patient who presented with symptoms of gingivitis. Local examination revealed multiple ulcers and a few nodules over the gingiva. A nodule biopsy was consistent with the diagnosis of gingival tuberculosis. The patient had no evidence of tuberculosis any where else in the body. Medical treatment was curative. As this condition is very rare, it is often over looked as it is never thought as a common clinical diagnosis. A biopsy is mandatory to establish diagnosis. The relevant literature is reviewed.

RESUMEN

Oral lesions of tuberculosis though uncommon, are seen in both the primary and secondary stages of the disease. In secondary tuberculosis, the oral manifestations may be accompanied by lesions in the lungs, lymph nodes, or in any other part of the body and can be detected by a systemic examination. Primary oral tuberculosis may present as a diagnostic challenge for the clinician. Here we report two patients with primary tuberculosis in the oral cavity who presented to the dental department, were diagnosed and referred for medical management.

RESUMEN

Tuberculosis can affect any part of the body and oral cavity remains no exception. The oral lesions of tuberculosis, though not common, are seen in various forms. The purpose of this article is to emphasize the importance of early diagnosis of primary tuberculosis of the mouth, which may be misdiagnosed when the oral lesions are the sole manifestation of the disease.

RESUMEN

Exponemos dos casos diagnosticados primariamente como sialoadenitis y que, posteriormente, resultaron ser una tuberculosis de la glándula submaxilar. Esta afeccón se presentea con una semiología inespecífica similar a una sialolitiasis. Aunque es más frecuente en nuestro medio la Tbc ganglionar que la glandular, debemos tener siempre presente que ante una adenopatía cervical habrá que descartar esta patología y que el diagnóstico definitivo lo vamos a realizar, tras la cirugía, con el examen anatomopatológico y bacteriológico. La PAAF junto con el test de Mantoux pueden ayudarnos en el diagnóstico prequirúrgico de la enfermedad
