Abstract

Tuberculosis is a public health problem for many countries, whether rich or poor. Extranodal ENT locations are rare, and it prevails in the cavum in the pharyngeal region. Based on a 3-year retrospective study of 5 clinical cases, the authors aim to highlight the epidemiological, clinical, radiological, therapeutic and prognostic aspects of this disease. Clinical aspects are not specific and there is often confusion in the differential diagnosis with tumoral lesions. Positive diagnosis is guided by the clinical and the radiological findings, and confirmed by histology.

Resumen

La pandemia tuberculosa supone un problema de salud pública para muchos países, ya sean ricos o pobres. Su localización ORL extraganglionar es poco frecuente, y en la región faríngea predomina en el cavum. En un estudio retrospectivo sobre 3 años, se intentan poner de relieve, a través de 5 casos clínicos de tuberculosis faríngea, los aspectos epidemiológicos, clínicos, radiológicos, terapéuticos y pronósticos de esta enfermedad. Sus aspectos clínicos no son específicos, y suelen prestarse a confusión con afección tumoral. El diagnóstico positivo se orienta por los datos clínicos y radiológicos y se confirma por anatomopatología.
