KOH scraping
Subject: KOH scraping

The skin lesion KOH exam is a test to diagnose a fungal infection of the skin.

How the Test is Performed Return to top

The health care provider scrapes the lesion off your skin, using a blunt edge such as the edge of a microscope slide. The scrapings from the skin lesion are placed in liquid containing potassium hydroxide (KOH) and examined under the microscope. KOH destroys all non-fungal cells, which makes it easier to see if there is any fungus present.

She says it twice in the report and pronounces it like it rhymes with cube or tube and sound like she says pube, so that is what made me think it was short for pubic.  Here is the other sentence: 


He had a high (pube) on the left and an elevate ASIS on the left in a sheer pattern.
