Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are difficult to diagnose and may resemble benign inflammatory dermatoses (BID). Hence, diagnosis requires consideration of clinical, histopathologic, molecular studies. Though, widely used studies rely on the T cell receptor g (TCRg) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detect a clone, it is reportedly positive in ∼50% early CTCL cases. High throughput TCR sequenci...

Background: Skin mycoses also called dermatophytosis is the most common fungal infection affects 20-25% of World population. Its prevalence varies place to with climatic changes, time age, sex and lifestyle Dermatophytoses could be caused by dermatophytes non-dermatophytes, their frequency isolation differs geographical variation.
 Objectives: To study various clinical presentations skin m...

Prevalence of dermatophytosis, with respect to age and sex and dermatophyte species, in Jaen was investigated during a period of three years (1996-1999). The prevalence of dermatophytosis over three years was 4.48 cases / 1000 inhabitants. The isolated species were: Microsporum canis (48.6%), Trichophyton mentagrophytes (27.1%), Epidermophyton floccosum (10%), Trichophyton rubrum (8.6%), Tricho...

Sites of infection vary according to geographical location, the organism involved, and environmental and cultural differences. Both tinea corporis, also referred to as 'ringworm' and tinea cruris or 'jock itch' are ...

Sir, Tinea capitis occurs worldwide. It is primarily a disease of childhood but in most cases oral therapy is necessary (1). Currently, triazoles and allylamines are increasingly applied in addition to the well-known antimycotics ketoconazole and griseofulvin (2 ^ 4). Terbina¢n is the ¢rst oral active allylamine, and although it has been available for several years experience in children is lim...

the conviction 011 my own mind, had any doubt existed before, that Leprosy is a constitutional cachexy, or an unhealthy condition, not of any one part or texture of the body, but of its whole framework and system (morbus totius corporis). The malady to which it has the greatest analogy is unquestionably scrofula, and it will greatly aid the reader, more especially the unprofessional one, in app...

The authors report the first case of dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton raubitschekii in a patient from the State of São Paulo with Tinea corporis lesions localized on the buttocks. Culture on Sabouraud-agar with cycloheximide permitted the isolation and identification of the fungus, and the diagnosis was confirmed by Dr. Lynne Sigler, University of Alberta, Canada. Systemic treatment with ...

Andreas Vesalius (1514 –1564) is one of the greatest anatomists of all time. His lasting recognition is due to two major achievements: being instrumental in making anatomy an empirical science and presenting the results of his work in an extraordinarily innovative way. The latter is also his connection with the arts. Vesalius was born in Brussels. He started his education in Leuven, attended th...

Butenafine is a synthetic benzylamine antifungal agent that may be fungicidal against susceptible organisms, e.g., dermatophytes. Butenafine may be effective and safe in the treatment of interdigital tinea pedis (apply twice daily for 1 week or once daily for 4 weeks), tinea corporis/tinea cruris (apply twice daily for 2 weeks), and pityriasis versicolor (apply once daily for 2 weeks). The effe...
