"In conclusion, bacterial diversity in the skin lesions of seborrheic dermatitis as interactions between Malassezia species and bacterial flora of the skin seem to be associated with the development of seborrheic dermatitis. S. aureus is a pathogenic microorganism commonly found in the skin flora of the patients with seborrheic dermatitis. We propose that, in addition to Malassezia species, S. aureus may play a role. Therefore, appropriate antibiotic therapy should be considered in the treatment of severe and persistent seborrheic dermatitis cases."
