Abstract
We describe two clinical features and the fact that Candida auris was isolated from their otorrhea. As a result, antifungal agents were administrated with neither of two cases, and both had favorable clinical outcomes with drainage and antibiotic administration. In our cases, C. auris isolated might not cause inflammation by itself. The feature that both had in common was the presence of serous otorrhea, which distinguished them from conventional other Candida spp.
