Brief summary
Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage is a major risk factor of infection with this bacterium. Staphylococcus aureus colonization of the posterior nasal cavity is still misunderstood. This study is aimed at evaluating the relationship between Staphylococcus aureus strains colonizing the vestibulum nasi, the sphenoethmoidal recess and the nasopharynx.
