The disease is endemic in tropical and subtropical areas, but its diagnosis remains difficult. As a consequence, and despite available antibiotherapy, some patients evolve advanced stages that can lead to disfiguration, severe respiratory impairment and death by anoxia. Because identification of the etiologic agent is crucial for the definitive diagnosis of the disease, the aim of this study was to develop two simple PCR assays. We took advantage of the fact that all Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis isolates are (i) of capsular serotype K3; and (ii) belong to a single clone with diagnostic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). The complete sequence of the genomic region comprising the capsular polysaccharide synthesis (cps) gene cluster was determined. Putative functions of the 21 genes identified were consistent with the structure of the K3 antigen. The K3-specific sequence of gene Kr11509 (wzy) was exploited to set up a PCR test, which was positive for 40 K3 strains but negative when assayed on the 76 other Klebsiella capsular types. Further, to discriminate Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis from other K3 Klebsiella strains, a specific PCR assay was developed based on diagnostic SNPs in the phosphate porin gene phoE. This work provides rapid and simple molecular tools to confirm the diagnostic of rhinoscleroma, which should improve patient care as well as knowledge on the prevalence and epidemiology of rhinoscleroma.

As K. Rhinoscleroma is a chronic granulomatous infection of the nose pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis is not considered as a commensal and upper airways of humans. The relative rarity of the disease and of the respiratory tract, its identification is key to the definitive low specificity of early symptoms make the clinical diagnosis of diagnosis of the disease [12,13]. This infectious agent is rhinoscleroma difficult [1]. As a consequence, some patients evolve metabolically less versatile than other K. pneumoniae strains, but advanced stages that can lead to severe respiratory impairment [2]. definitive identification based on biochemical properties (ONPG The most characteristic feature of the disease is the observation in negative, no acid production from lactose, urease, LDC and citrate biopsies of big foamy cells, called Mikulicz cells, in which bacilli are negative) is rendered difficult due to variation in metabolic seen after hematoxilin-eosin staining [3]. Hence, the specific characteristics of K. pneumoniae strains [9,11]. Furthermore, diagnosis of rhinoscleroma currently relies on the combination of members of a third subspecies, K. pneumoniae subsp. ozaenae, which histological and bacteriological examinations, with the presence of are associated with an atrophic rhinitis known as ozaena, also have Mikulicz cells and the identification of the causative agent, the reduced metabolic capacities [8]. bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis [4] from tissue Klebsiella strains are typically surrounded by a polysaccharidic culture, nasal swabs or blood culture [4,5]. capsule of considerable thickness that is responsible for the mucoid Initially, species status (Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis) was given to the aspect of colonies. Klebsiella capsular serotyping (K typing) agent of rhinoscleroma. However, given high similarity based on distinguishes at least 77 K types [7,14]. As all strains of K. pneumoniae DNA-DNA hybridization [6], it is now regarded as a subspecies of subsp. rhinoscleromatis are of capsular type 3 (K3), K typing is used for Klebsiella pneumoniae [7]. Multiple gene sequencing confirmed the confirmatory identification of K. pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis and close relatedness of the agent of rhinoscleroma with K. pneumoniae allows distinction from K. pneumoniae subsp. ozaenae strains, which are [8–10]. Currently, the definitive identification of the organism is mostly of type K4 and more rarely of types K5 and K6 [7]. difficult. Different from K. pneumoniae sensu stricto (i.e., K. However, K typing is technically cumbersome and a small pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae), which can be encountered in many proportion of K. pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae strains (including the hosts, environments and clinical sources [11], K. pneumoniae subsp. type strain CIP 82.91T = ATCC 13883T) are of type K3 as well, www.plosntds.org 1 May 2011 | Volume 5 | Issue 5 | e1052 Identification of the Agent of Rhinoscleroma Author Summary Methods In humans, the bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp.

    Case Report Unusual presentation of Rhinoscleroma Dehadaray A1, Patel M2, Kaushik M3, Agrawal D4 ABSTRACT Rhinoscleroma or respiratory scleroma is a chronic, slowly progressive, inflammatory disease of the upper respiratory tract. Here we present a 35 year old male presenting with unilateral orbital complaints and non- specific findings on radiological examination, diagnosed only by histopathology as Rhinoscleroma. Due to the low incidence of this disease and its rare presentation in this case, diagnosis was a challenge, but outcome was successful.

November 2017 Case Report Introduction hinoscleroma is a chronic progressive, specific granulomatous infectious disease affecting the Rupper respiratory tract associated with Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis infection. It is endemic in Central and South America, Central Africa, Middle East, parts of Europe, India, and Indonesia [1]. It most commonly af- fects the nose [2]. Cases of Rhinoscleroma with invasion into the or- bits are rare, with very few cases reported in litera- ture. Ophthalmologists should also be aware of the Fig 1a Fig 1b disease and the problems in its management. We pres- ent a case of Rhinoscleroma which posed difficulty in with reduced movements in all directions, and vision diagnosing due to its clinical resemblance with other of 6/18.

    Eur J Rhinol Allergy 2020; 3(2): 53-4 Image of Interest Rhinoscleroma Seepana Ramesh , Satvinder Singh Bakshi Department of ENT and Head & Neck Surgery, AIIMS Mangalagiri, Guntur, India A 22-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of bilateral nasal obstruction and nasal discharge that was associated with intermittent mild episodes of blood-tinged nasal discharge since 2 months. On examination, a pinkish irregular mass was observed in both the nostrils with complete obstruction of the right nostril. Computed tomography revealed a non-en- hanced homogeneous mass in the left frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinuses that extended to both the nasal cavities (Figure 1). Histopathology revealed fragments of granulation tissue with inflammatory cells comprising several foamy to vacuolated histiocytes and plasma cells, suggestive of rhinoscleroma (Figure 2). The patient underwent surgical debridement of the mass and received ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice daily for 6 weeks. He was asymptomatic at 4 months of follow-up. Rhinoscleroma is a chronic granulomatous disease affecting the region between the nose and the subglottis. It is caused by the gram-negative bacillus Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis and spreads by inhalation of contaminated droplets (1). The symptoms depend on the stage of the disease. In the atrophic stage, patients present with fetid nasal dis- charge and crusting, followed by the granulomatous stage, wherein patients develop epistaxis and nasal deformity, secondary to the destruction of the nasal cartilages (1). The final stage is the sclerotic stage, in which patients present with thick dense scars in the nose and upper airway, leading to complete nasal obstruction and even stridor due to laryngeal stenosis (1).

While K. pneumoniae and K. rhinoscleromatis infections induced a classical inflammatory reaction, K. rhinoscleromatis infection was characterized by a strong production of IL-10 concomitant to the appearance of Mikulicz cells. Strikingly, in the absence of IL-10, very few Mikulicz cells were observed, confirming a crucial role of IL-10 in the establishment of a proper environment leading to the maturation of these atypical monocytes. This is the first characterization of the environment leading to Mikulicz cells maturation and their identification as inflammatory monocytes.
