Popis: 5 cases of Nigerian children, all below 2 years of age are presented. Common to all is a history of treated ear infections with subsequent development of otorrhoea. Both smears and cultures of the ear swabs documented candida albicans, and all the patients responded well to oral Nystatin. There is as yet little emphasis in published works on the relationship between candida albicans and draining ears.
