Résumé :
The successful treatment of patients with midline granuloma requires prompt recognition of the cause as the therapy is quite specific. Nasal insufflation of cocaine is rarely mentioned as a cause. Two patients are described who used intranasal cocaine, leading to midline ulceration of the upper respiratory tract.
