This study investigated dermatophytosis and dermatomycosis in 126 patients over three years. Tinea corporis and onychomycosis were the most common fungal infections diagnosed.

Area of Science:

  • Mycology
  • Dermatology
  • Clinical Microbiology

Background:

  • Dermatophytosis and dermatomycosis are common superficial fungal infections.
  • Understanding the prevalence and etiological agents is crucial for effective management.
  • This study focuses on patients presenting at Command Hospital (SC).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the spectrum of dermatophytosis and dermatomycosis.
  • To identify the common clinical diagnoses and etiological agents.
  • To determine the diagnostic yield of direct microscopy and fungal culture.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study of 126 patients over a 3-year period.
  • Clinical diagnosis based on patient presentation.
  • Direct microscopic examination using potassium hydroxide (KOH) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).
Keywords:

  • Fungal culture for isolation and identification of causative agents.

    • Main Results:

    • The most frequent clinical diagnosis was tinea corporis (39.68%), followed by onychomycosis (20.63%).
    • Direct examination revealed fungal elements in 34.12% of cases.
    • Fungal isolation was successful in 34.92% of cases.
    • Commonly isolated fungi included Candida albicans (25%), Trichophyton spp. (18.18%), Microsporum audouinii (4.55%), and Epidermophyton floccosum (2.27%).

    Conclusions:

    • Tinea corporis and onychomycosis are significant causes of dermatological consultations.
    • Candida albicans and Trichophyton species are the predominant fungal pathogens identified.
    • Microscopy and culture are valuable diagnostic tools for superficial fungal infections.
