Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Vietnam is a tropical country so fungal diseases including dermatophytosis may be prevalent, but epidemiological profiles of agents responsible for the infection have rarely been reported. OBJECTIVE:To find out the distribution of dermatophytes among patients living in a central province of Vietnam. METHODS:We examined dermatophyte infections in patients with lesions suspected of dermatophytosis referred to the Nghean provincial leprosy and dermatology centre from August 2015 to August 2016. The speciation of dermatophyte was performed by conventional and molecular approaches. RESULTS:One hundred and thirty-six patients (90 males and 46 females) were included. Those aged from 11 to 30 contribute 59.1%. The most common agent found was Trichophyton rubrum (66.9%), followed by T. interdigitale (12.5%), T. tonsurans (9.6%), Microsporum incurvatum (8.1%), and the less frequent species were M. canis (2.2%) and T. violaceum (0.7%). Epidermophyton floccosum was not reported. T. rubrum were more common in men (74.4%) than in women (52.2%), while T. interdigitale and M. incurvatum were more common in women (21.7 and 15.2%) than in men (7.8 and 4.4%). Patients infected with Microsporum spp. had small-sized lesions for only 3 months, while those affected by Trichophyton spp. had large-sized lesions with longer duration. CONCLUSION:Trichophyton species are the predominant agents of infection in Nghean province, while Epidermophyton species is absent. Additional investigations are required to clarify the epidemiological profile of dermatophytes in Vietnam.
