[Otomycosis: presentation of 15 cases].

Abstract:

:Fifteen cases of otomycosis in 11 women and 4 men attending the Clinic Hospital in Salamanca during the period from 1984 to 1988 are discussed. A. niger was the species isolated on the majority of occasions (73.3%). The commonest form of presentation of otomycosis was simple chronic (73.3%). The clinical pictures was characterized by serous secretion and pruritus. Otomycosis with associated bacterial infection (20.0%) was the cause of the most intense symptoms, featuring suppuration and hypoacusia. In 5 patients, local antecedents of interest were observed: three cases of chronic cholesteatomatose otitis in which surgery had been performed; retroauricular eczema, and perichondritis of the ear. Despite topical treatment with clotrimazole, 4 cases of relapse occurred (26.7%) and in none of these was associated bacterial infection observed.
