Rhinosleroma is a chronic destructive bacterial infection of the nose and upper respiratory airways, caused by klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. We report a case of 22 years old male, who presented with symptoms of nasal obstruction, both sides due to bilateral nasal masses of 1 year duration. Patient underwent all the necessary investigation, including biopsy. Biopsy revealed the histological diagnosis of rhinoscleroma. Medical management was given to the patient, which is adequate to effectively cure the patient, unless recurrence occurs.
