Demodex folliculorum in a nipple imprint

W J Fidler. Acta Cytol. 1978 May-Jun.

Abstract

Demodex mites were found in a nipple imprint. Their morphologic features in this cytologic preparation have been described and illustrated. These mites are common parasites of human skin and are apparently of little or no pathologic significance.
