| Popis: |
We describe the case of a 63-year-old woman who had recently developed dysphagia. Oral endoscopy revealed an ulcerated fungating lesion in the middle third of the esophagus. The histologic examination showed granulomas with caseous central necrosis, and the culture in a Lowenstein medium produced M. tuberculosis. There were mediastinic adenopathies, but no other organic involvement with this mycobacterium was demonstrated. We review the other 21 cases reported in the English and Spanish literature over the past ten years. |
