Overview: The fungal skin disease dermatophytosis has come to be called ringworm because of the appearance of the skin lesion that characteristically occurs with this disorder: a circular area of hair loss with a red, raised outer rim. These lesions result from an inflammatory reaction to the fungus. Most often, dogs and cats are infected by the Microsporum canis fungus, but other types of fung...
متن کاملDermatophytosis caused by Microsporum gypseum in infants: report of four cases and review of the literature*
Dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum gypseum is rare, especially in infants, with few published cases. Diagnosis in this age group is frequently delayed. We review the literature and report 4 new cases of tinea of glabrous skin caused by M. gypseum mimicking eczema in infants. Considering new and previously reported cases, half of patients were exposed to sand, emphasizing the importance of th...

متن کاملTinea incognito due to microsporum gypseum
A 41-year-old woman presented with a pruritic rash on the face that was of 3 months duration.

Finally, fungi were found in the lesions by optical microscopy, and the fungal cult...
متن کاملRelationship of nuclear segregation and macroconidial germination in Microsporum gypseum.
Microsporum gypseum macroconidia germinated at 37 C possessed from one to eight nuclei per germinated spore compartment. The distribution of nuclei per spore compartment was the result of a random packaging of nuclei from the available nuclear population. Partial inhibition of germination by incubation at 25 C or at 37 C in the presence of 10(-4)m phenyl methyl sulfonyl-fluoride resulted in an ...
