A Case of Spontaneous Recovery in an Infant with Nail Candidiasis Probably Related to Nail Trauma During Vaginal Delivery.

ABSTRACT

Onychomycosis in infants is a rare fungal infection. The condition is frequently linked to congenital or secondary immunodeficiency, as well as exposure to contaminated environments. In this report, we present a case of infant onychomycosis, likely infected during birth delivery from the mother with vaginal candidiasis. However, both the infant and the mother recovered spontaneously without any treatment over several months.
