["Banal dermatomycoses" that cannot be overlooked].

Two young adults presented an interdigital intertrigo and a dyschromic nail alteration, respectively. They were adept of intense sport swimming in pools. Lesions had been misdiagnosed as athlete's foot and onychomycosis, respectively. Several antifungal treatments had been tried without success. After many months of inadequate management, the dermatological examination revealed the presence of two malignant melanomas corresponding to the eroded acrolentiginous and nodular subungueal types, respectively.

[Etiologic and epidemiologic study of dermatomycoses in Navarra (Spain)].

We review the etiology of the dermatophytosis in Navarra (Spain) over a 5-year period and it is compared with previous studies. We have isolated 312 strains of dermatophyte fungi in 285 patients (188 men and 97 women). Trichophyton rubrum was the most frequently isolated species (58.6%) followed by Trichophyton mentagrophytes (26.2%) and Microsporum canis (10.5%). Concerning the location of the lesions, tinea pedis was the clinical pattern found in the greatest number of patients, followed by tinea corporis, tinea unguium and tinea capitis. Twenty eight percent of the isolations were accomplished in October and November. More than half of those patients questioned had had epidemiological contact with animals or practiced sports. The rise of tinea pedis in our region is emphasised. The possible causes of this increment are analyzed and some recommendations for its control are made.

[Findings on dermatomycoses observed at the Dermatologic Clinic, University of Pavia. A third pathology caused by Trichophyton rubrum].

From 1974 to 1988 T. rubrum have been isolated in 304 cases (27.8% of dermatophytes) in the Department of Dermatology in Pavia and it is the second most frequent fungus after M. canis. Males are more frequently affected (61.1%) than females (38.9%). A single localization was found in 82.2% of the cases and two or more types of "Tineae" only in 17.8%. The age-group 31-40 is more frequently affected (29%). The most frequent dermatophytosis caused by T. rubrum was Tinea pedis (33.9%) while Tinea capitis resulted a very rare localization (2.1%). An increase of T. rubrum infections is noted particularly in the last years.

A clinical and mycological assessment of tioconazole solution in the treatment of superficial dermatomycoses.

The efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of tioconazole solution (1%) in a pump spray were evaluated in an open-label trial in 26 patients with dermatophytosis, superficial candidiasis, and tinea versicolor. Medication was applied twice daily for 30 consecutive days. Eighteen patients had dermatophyte lesions: four patients had tinea pedis interdigitalis (one of these also had tinea cruris), and 14 patients had tinea corporis. Of these, four patients did not respond to treatment and were considered therapeutic failures and ten were carriers and remained so one month after therapy. Five patients were clinically and mycologically cured at the end of therapy and did not relapse one month after therapy. All of the eight remaining patients were clinically and mycologically cured at the end of treatment and one month later: these included seven patients with tinea versicolor and one with anal candidiasis.
