title: [Acquired stenosis of the nasopharynx].
abstract: A case of scarring stenosis of the nasopharynx occurring in the fifth decade without previous medical history is presented. Transpalatal resection with a prolonged stent, produced patent nasal cavities, but the different studies performed did not establish the etiological diagnosis. A final stage of rhinoscleroma was suspected.
