| Summary: | Patient K. turned to a dermatologist with complaints of periodic itching in the scalp skin, face, auricles, external auditory canals with discomfort and discharge from them. Clinical diagnosis: seborrheic dermatitis. At the otolaryngologist consultation, the patient was diagnosed with bilateral external otitis media with the formation of hyperkeratotic casts in both external auditory canals. Seborrheic dermatitis was treated in two stages. At the first stage, itraconazole 200 mg was prescribed orally 1 time per day for the first week of treatment, then 200 mg orally 1 time per day for the first two days of each month for 3 months and externally on the scalp ketoconazole shampoo 2% 2 times a week for 4 weeks, then 1 time in 2 weeks. At the second stage, isotretinoin was administered orally at a dosage of 10 mg per day in an intermittent mode. A positive clinical result was obtained against the background of the therapy. The patient continues to remain under supervision. |
