AB - <p>When a patient of oriental extraction was seen with a mass in the nasopharynx, squamous cell carcinoma appeared to be the obvious diagnosis. Histologic examination, however, proved the mass to be a tuberculoma. This condition, which was not rare in the past, is almost always secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis. It responds to antituberculous medications.</p>
