Secondary Onychomycosis Development after Cosmetic Procedure-Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical, Medical and Experimental Images - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The authors describe the unusual case of subungual onychomycosis, due to fluconazole and itraconazole resistant Candida albicans after using the hybrid and acrylic lacquers and nail tips. The etiology of these atypical changes was supported by isolation of the fungus from the nail lesions, and its consistent identification by means of morphological and molecular diagnosis. In the presented case, topical treatment with ciclopirox 8% nail lacquer allow to fight the pathogenic fungus but did not restore the natural appearance of the nails.
