What is Histology vs. Tissue Culture in Skin Infections about?

This retrospective study assessed the concordance between tissue culture and histology in diagnosing cutaneous infections in 179 patients. Results showed low agreement, with only 10% having positive concordance, while histology was more sensitive for fungi and tissue culture for Gram-negative bacteria. The study highlights the limitations of both tests and the impact of prior antimicrobial use on culture results.
