[Contribution of fungi to chronic dermatitis and lymphangitis in patients with filariasis].

Adenolymphangitis is a common occurrence in filarial lymphedema. Damage to the lymphatics by F. bancrofti is followed by obliteration of lymph vessel and lymph stasis. Obstruction of lymphatics prevents the microbs skin penetration. Presented studies were performed to evaluate the role of fungi colonization of the skin among patients with filarial lymphedema. The fungal colonization of skin in patients with filarial lymphedema may be an important reason for chronic inflammatory disorders.
