Abstract

Background: VULVOVAGINAL CANDIDIASIS is a fungal disease with itching, and thick white vaginal discharge. 70-75% of normal healthy adult women report having had at least one episode in their life; CANDIDA albicans is identified as the most common cause. The objective of this study was to identify the different CANDIDA species in the vaginal swabs of patients with vulvo-vaginitis.Methods: 175 vaginal swab specimens, from patients admitted in the Gynecology Department of Mahdieh Hospital with recurrent and non-recurrent vulvovaginitis, were cultured on SDA medium. The isolates were subcultured onto CHROM agar CANDIDA medium and incubated at 3TC for 48h.Results: In 89.7% of cases, single CANDIDA species"and in 10.3%, multiple CANDIDA species were isolated. Frequency of different isolates was as follows: C. albicans (65.1%), C. glabrata (13.1%), C. tropicalis (6.2%), C. krusei (4%), C. guilliermondii (0.6%), C. parapsilosis (0.6%), C. glabrata and C. albicans (5.7%), C. albicans and c.parapsilosis (1.1%), C. glabrata and C. tropicalis (0.6%), C. krusei and C.tropicalis (0.6%), C. albicans and C. tropicalis (0.6%), C. krusei and C. albicans (0.6%), C. glabrata and C. krusei (0.6%), and C. glabrata and C. krusei and C. albicans (0.6%).Conclusion: Our findings suggest that, the common cause of both recurrent and non-recurrent VULVOVAGINAL CANDIDIASIS was C. albicans, followed by C. glabrata.
