Résumé : In their study of a case of lethal midline-granuloma, the authors describe the relations between this affection, Wegener’s granulomatosis and lymphoma. The case under review illustrates the difficulty in accurately defining the nosologic picture of the disease. Anatomo-pathological examinations present two possibilities: one being malignant granuloma of the Stewart type, the other that of lymphoma. From its subsequent evolution, we may eventually learn whether this is purely a local illness or represents the onset of a systemic disease. © 1979 S. Karger AG, Basel.
