Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis is a rare cellular immunodeficiency disease, characterized by persistent infections of the mucous membranes, nails, skin and scalp. Candidal granuloma is an uncommon form of mucocutaneous candidiasis of early onset which may ne associated with hypothyroidism. It is difficult to manage as so far no truly effective treatment has been found. We present a 13-year old boy with candidal granuloma associated with primary hypothyroidism who had a favorable response to treatment with thyroid hormone and miconazole. The fungicide was given in tablet form, a single dose per day and patient kept it in his mouth and in contact with his lips for 15 minutes. One and a half year later clinical evolution is good and no side effects related to the miconazole have been observed.
