Prevalence of aerobic bacteria causing wound infection in patients with filarial elephantiasis in a tertiary care hospital of Kolkata, India
: Lymphatic filariasis, thought to be a neglected tropical disease (NTD) globally, is caused by microscopic, thread-like nematodes. The present study was conducted to identify the microorganisms in the ulcerative wounds of filarial elephantiasis. A total of 100 samples were collected and studied from the patients attended on Filaria OPD, School of Tropical medicine, Kolkata, India. Staphylococcus aureus (46.67%) was identified as the predominant organism among the different aerobic bacteria present in the ulcer, followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella sp., Enterococcus sp., Escherichia coli and Enterobacter sp.
