Case Reports. Six cases of infection due to Trichophyton verrucosum
Mycoses, 2001Co-Authors: Clara Romano, L. Massai, C. Gianni, Carlo CrostiAbstract:Summary. Dermatophyte infections due to Trichophyton verrucosum are not frequent in Europe. Six cases observed in Italy in the period 1995–99 are reported. Two were cases of Tinea barbae, two of Tinea corporis and two of Tinea capitis, one of which had been preceded by Tinea faciei. In three cases the source of contagion was horses, in two it was cattle and in one case it was another person. The two cases of Tinea barbae were initially interpreted and treated as bacterial infections, a diagnostic error reported with increasing frequency in the literature regarding dermatophytosis due to T. verrucosum. Zusammenfassung. Dermatophytosen durch Trichophyton verrucosum kommen in Europa nicht haufig vor. Wir berichten uber 6 Falle, die in Italien zwischen 1995 und 1999 beobachtet wurden. Hierbei handelt es sich um 2 Tineae barbae, 2 Tineae corporis und 2 Tineae capitis, wobei einem dieser Falle anfanglich eine Tinea faciei vorausging. Infektionsquellen waren in 3 Fallen Pferde, in 2 Rinder und in einem Fall der Mensch. Die beiden Tineae barbae wurden anfanglich als bakterielle Follikulitis interpretiert und mit Antibiotika behandelt. Auf Fehldiagnosen dieser Art, wird bei Beschreibungen von Dermatophytosen durch Trichophyton verrucosum auch durch andere Autoren immer ofter hingewiesen.

Tinea faciei mimicking cutaneous lupus erythematosus: A histopathologic case report
Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology, 2003Co-Authors: Simin Meymandi, Marni C Wiseman, Richard I CrawfordAbstract:Abstract Tinea faciei is an uncommon dermatophyte infection. Clinically, it may resemble other dermatoses such as cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), polymorphous light eruption, and contact dermatitis. Histopathology is highly variable, demonstrating a spectrum from mild focal spongiosis to a chronic spongiotic psoriasiform dermatitis with a mixed dermal inflammatory infiltrate and fungi in the cornified layer. We report a case of Tinea faciei with histopathology that is characteristic of CLE. (J Am Acad Dermatol 2003;48:S7-8.)

Microsporum gypseum infection in the Siena area in 2005-2006.
Mycoses, 2008Co-Authors: Clara Romano, L. Massai, A. Gallo, Michele FimianiAbstract:Fourteen cases of dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum gypseum, representing 6.8% of all dermatophytic infections reported, were diagnosed in Siena, Italy, between 2005 and 2006. There were as follows: six cases of Tinea corporis, one case of Tinea corporis associated with Tinea capitis, one case of Tinea corporis associated with Tinea barbae, one kerion on the head, one Tinea cruris, one Tinea faciei, one Tinea barbae, two onychomycosis. In the three subjects with Tinea corporis, the clinical appearance was impetigo-like, psoriasis-like and pityriasis rosea-like respectively. In another case, the lesion was indicative of Tinea imbricata. The diagnosis was based on mycological examination. In six cases, the source of infection was a cat, whereas in the others it was contact with soil.

Trichophyton Spezies von Arthroderma benhamiae
Der Hautarzt, 2016Co-Authors: C. Hiernickel, Florian Seyfarth, C. Wiegand, Sibylle Schliemann, Peter Elsner, K Jung, U.‑c. HiplerAbstract:Cutaneous infections with Trichophyton species of Arthroderma (A.) benhamiae are increasingly being detected in Germany. This dermatophyte typically causes Tinea corporis, Tinea faciei or Tinea capitis with in part heavy clinical manifestation like kerion celsi. In special cases diagnosis and therapy can be difficult. In this article, four clinical cases are presented, whereby attention is given to special clinical situations and therapeutic aspects with regard to Trichophyton species of A. benhamiae : Case 1: Kerion celsi by in a 6-year-old boy; Case 2: Deep trichophytia at the mons pubis in a 32-year-old man working in a pet shop and his 27-year-old female partner; Case 3: Tinea manuum in a 7-year-old girl; Case 4: Tinea corporis in an 8‑year-old girl. Kutane Infektionen mit Trichophyton ( T. ) Spezies von Arthroderma ( A. ) benhamiae werden in Deutschland mit zunehmender Häufigkeit nachgewiesen. Der klassischerweise durch Meerschweinchen übertragene Erreger erzeugt beim Menschen das klinische Bild einer Tinea corporis, Tinea faciei oder Tinea capitis mit teils schwerer Manifestation bis hin zum Kerion celsi. Die Diagnose und Therapie kann in speziellen Fällen schwierig sein. In diesem Beitrag werden 4 klinische Fälle von Infektionen mit T. Spezies von A. benhamiae beschrieben, um auf klinische und therapeutische Aspekte hinzuweisen: Fall 1: Kerion celsi bei einem 6‑jährigen Jungen, Fall 2: tiefe Trichophytie an dem Mons pubis bei einem 32-jährigen Angestellten einer Tierhandlung und seiner 27-jährigen Lebensgefährtin, Fall 3: Tinea manuum bei einem 7‑jährigen Mädchen, Fall 4: Tinea corporis bei einem 8‑jährigen Mädchen.

Eighty-four consecutive cases of Tinea faciei in Siena, a retrospective study (1989-2003)
Mycoses, 2005Co-Authors: C. Romano, A. Ghilardi, L. MassaiAbstract:Summary Consecutive cases of Tinea faciei diagnosed in Siena between 1989 and 2003 were studied retrospectively for differences in clinical form, demographic data and species of dermatophyte isolated. The series consisted of 84 cases (59 females, 25 males) with a mean age of 27 years. Mean age of females (32.4 years) was significantly greater than that of males (14.2 years). The dermatophytes most frequently isolated were Microsporum canis (38 cases) and Trichophyton rubrum (31 cases). Clinical form was typical of Tinea in 54 subjects (64.3%) and was Tinea incognito because of inappropriate therapy in the other 30 (35.7%) subjects. The mean age of patients with the typical form (19.2 years) was significantly lower than that of those with Tinea incognito (41.1 years). All cases in the age range 6–15 years had typical Tinea, whereas the maximum frequency of cases with Tinea incognito was 46–50 years. In the group with Tinea incognito there was a majority of women and the dermatophytes isolated differed with gender. No such difference was observed in the group with typical Tinea.
