OBJECTIVE: To present the 15-year experience of a tertiary dermato-mycology clinic with the diagnosis and treatment of deep dermatophytosis. METHODS: Patients were identified by database search. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The experience of a tertiary dermato-mycology clinic in Israel is presented. [life-worldwide.org]

Tinea incognito This is tinea corporis with an altered, nonclassic presentation due to corticosteroid treatment. [5] See Clinical Presentation for more detail. [emedicine.medscape.com]

This article will review the clinical presentations, pathologic characteristics, underlying disease and treatment outcome of patients with deep dermatophytosis reported in published studies. [afwgonline.com]

See Workup for more detail. Management Topical therapy is recommended for a localized infection because dermatophytes rarely invade living tissues. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Systemic antifungal treatment leads to complete resolution. The urgent need for the treatment of superficial fungal infections in immunocompromised patients is emphasized. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment Currently, there are no treatment guidelines available for deep dermatophytosis. But considering the depth of invasion, systemic antifungal agents should always be used. [afwgonline.com]

Despite improvements in supportive care and patient selection, death after ASCT remains a concern due to progressive disease, infection, and other treatment- and non-treatment-related causes. [medworm.com]

Orally administered griseofulvin remains the standard treatment for tinea capitis. Topical treatment of onychomycosis with ciclopirox nail lacquer has a low cure rate. [aafp.org]

Transient response was observed after each treatment. In the last 2 years, the lesions progressed with poor response to combined antifungal treatment, consisting of voriconazole and L-AMB. [aspergillus.org.uk]

The host immune status plays a major role in disease pathogenesis, extent and prognosis. Systemic antifungal treatment is always necessary. [afwgonline.com]

However, the immune response that is raised, and especially the degree of inflammation, varies according to the dermatophyte species, the host species and the pathophysiological status of the host. [4], [5], [14] In general, the zoophilic species cause [e-ijd.org]
