Tuberculosis of the middle ear and nasal passage: a case report
International Journal of Mycobacteriology. 2013; 2 (1): 51-53

ABSTRACT
The following report highlights the case of a 55-year-old female with nasal and middle ear tuberculosis. The diagnosis was confirmed using imagery, histopathological biopsy reports, and Polymerase chain reaction [TB-PCR]. The patient was treated with rifampicin [10 mg/kg], isoniazid [5 mg/kg] and pyrazinamide [25 mg/kg] for 9 months. No recurrence was observed after one year of follow-up examination. Both nasal tuberculosis and tuberculous otitis media are currently considered rare diseases, yet if they are evaluated rapidly, there will be a good response to therapy without the need for surgery
