The oesophagus is a rare localization of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. We report 2 cases of tuberculous mediastinal lymph nodes revealed by dysphagia and fever in immunocompetent subjects. With the actual outbreak of tuberculosis, this localization is worth mentioning, as the precocity of the diagnosis and the therapeutic handling is an important prognostic factor.
