title: [Rhinoscleroma with extramaxillary extension: report of a clinical case].
abstract: Rhinoscleroma is a chronic, granulomatous infection most frequently affecting the respiratory tract mucosa. The disease is endemic in some geographic areas and is sporadic in Italy, where medio-facial granulomatoses must be differentiated from malignant naso-sinus neoplasms. The present work describes a case of rhino-sinus scleroma with extramaxillary extension, defining the most important clinical characteristics and the treatment performed.
