Abstract
Otomycosis is a not-uncommon clinical problem encountered in our otolaryngology practice. We report 100 diagnoses (107 ears) of otomycosis, of which, on microbiological examination, 87 specimens (81.3%) showed positive fungal cultures. Of these, a single isolate was found in 85 cases (79.4%), mixed isolates were found in 2 cases, and 20 cases (18.7%) had no growth. The most common fungal pathogen found was Aspergillus, followed by Candida albicans. The causative factors for otomycosis were examined. The results of treatment with clotrimazole were analyzed.
