ABSTRACT
In 1984-1991 in the microbiological laboratory in Komárno (Slovak Republic) 4224 (100%) smears with the diagnosis of otitis were examined. From 138 (3.26%) of smears microscopic filamentous fungi were isolated, most frequently aspergillae from the group Aspergillus niger (34.1%), Aspergillus flavus (29.8%) and Aspergillus fumigatus (21.8% of 138 isolates). The strains of other species of filamentous micromycetes were found only rarely. A review on the incidence of filamentous micromycetes in otitis in different regions, based on data in the literature is presented.
