Two Cases of Trichophyton rubrum Syndrome

Abstract



Trychophyton (T.) rubrum is the most prevalent pathogen among causative fungi of dermatophytosis. Primary infection of T. rubrum can be spread by autoinoculation or other reason and some suggests this generalized infection can be a syndrome. We report two cases of T. rubrum syndrome. The first patient, a 43-year-old male, had a tinea pedis with tinea unguium, tinea corporis, tinea cruris, and tinea manus. The second patient, a 73-year-old female, had a tinea pedis with tinea unguium, tinea manus, tinea corporis, tinea capitis, and tinea faciale. Causative pathogens were T. rubrum.
