Abstract
From 1991 until 1993 we used fluconazole in 56 cases of oral candidosi s which could not be managed by local therapy only. In seven cases the re was no clinical improvement. A mycological cure was seen in 44 case s. In cases of oral candidosis which do not respond to local therapy f luconazole has proven a success especially in the follow up of patient s with oral cancer and in cases of oral precancerous lesions with myco tic colonization.
