ABSTRACT
Tuberculosis is a chronic bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculae and is characterized by the formation of caseating granulomas in infected tissues by cell mediated hypersensitivity, though primary tuberculosis of the sinonasal tract is considered infrequent, it is practical to keep the disease in mind in any case of undiagnosed clinical infection or inflammatory disease. Any undiagnosed pathology of the sinonasal tract should be suspected to be a case of tuberculosis until proved otherwise. Key Words Tuberculosis, Sinonasal, Pathology
