title: [Tungiasis: a rare consequence of the fascination by the exotic?].
abstract: The paper reports three cases of tungiasis observed within the space of 6 months in patients who had spent part of their holidays in the Ivory Coast, Brazil and Senegal respectively. Spontaneous recovery probably makes the observation of this disease more rare.
