Pus specimens from 28 patients with paronychia of the finger yielded bacterial growth by techniques for cultivation of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Anaerobic and aerobic organisms only were isolated in pure culture in five (18%) and eight patients (29%), respectively; mixed aerobic and anaerobic flora were present in 15 patients (54%). Seventy-two isolates were recovered, or 2.6 isolates per specimen. The predominant anaerobic organisms were Gram-positive anaerobic cocci, Bacteroides species, and Fusobacterium species. The predominant aerobic organisms were Staphylococcus aureus, gamma-hemolytic streptococci, Eikenella corrodens, group A beta-hemolytic streptococci, alpha-hemolytic streptococci, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Candida albicans was recovered in four cases. This study demonstrates the mixed aerobic and anaerobic bacteriology of paronychia.
