The study was conducted to identify the epidemiological and clinico\u2010mycological characteristics of patients with OM attending a tertiary care hospital in Delhi. Hundred patients with clinical diagnosis of OM were recruited. Among these, 88 patients who tested positive for OM on direct microscopy with KOH, culture and\/or histopathology with periodic acid\u2010Schiff were included in the study. The clinico\u2010mycological characteristics and risk factors associated with OM were evaluated. OM was more common in males (M:F\u00a0=\u00a02.5:1). The mean age of patients with OM was 39\u00a0\u00b1\u00a015.3\u00a0years (SE 1.52) with mean disease duration of 27.6\u00a0\u00b1\u00a046.1\u00a0months (SE 4.9). Seventeen (19.3%) patients had concomitant diabetes mellitus. The patients displayed mean body mass index (BMI) of 25.67\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.35\u00a0kg\/sq m. Concurrent dermatophytosis of skin was present in 35 (39.77%) patients. Two feet\u2010one hand syndrome was present in 5 patients. Fingernail involvement without toenail involvement was more common than toenail involvement alone. (43.18% vs 38.63%). Distal and lateral subungual OM (DLSO) was the commonest clinical variant (81.8%). Mycological culture showed growth in 47 (53.40%) patients. Dermatophytes were isolated in majority, that is in 30 (63.82%) patients followed by non\u2010dermatophytic moulds (NDM) in 7 (14.8%) and <jats:italic>Candida<\/jats:italic> spp. in the remaining 10
