Zusammenfassung:We present a study performed on 18 patient s with rosacea who underwent screening for D. foiliculoru m with the standarized skin surface biopsy before and after topical treatment with metronidazole. The mite counts were similar in the skin samples before and after topical metronidazole but higher than those observed in contra subjects matched for age and sex. We concluded that the mite is not the primary pathogen involved in rosacea, but its role as vector of a patogenic bacteria must be investigated.
