Abstract : Tuberculosis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. We report the case of a 68-year-oldwoman who presented, 06 months before her consultation, an isolated unilateral cervical lymphadenopathy without any others symptoms. Nasofibroscopy showed a mass of the cavum and the histopathology revealed granulomatous inflammatory lesions with caseation necrosis. The declining cavum mass was noticed after nine months ofanti-tuberculous medication.

Keywords : Cavum, Tuberculosis, Antibacillary treatment
