Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis revisited.

A G Palma-Carlos1, M L Palma-Carlos.   

Abstract

A study of 26 female patients with recurrent candidial infections have been studied. Delayed hypersensitivity to Candida antigens was observed only in 17 of the patients. 12 patients had also chronic urticaria. A defect in NK cells was found in 18 out of 23 cases (78%). Treatment with Candida vaccines had obtained good clinical results in 11 of the first 13 patients treated.
