Abstract:
Here we report the first human case of an outer ear canal infection with a free-living nematode of the genus Rhabditis . Otomicroscopy revealed viable worms in the outer ear canal of a patient suffering from chronic otorrhea and hearing loss. The nematode was identified by microscopy and internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-PCR.
