Abstract:
:This is a retrospective study on the superficial mycoses due to Trichophyton violaceum in the greater Athens area for the last 15 years - 1989-2003. During this period 104 patients were found to have an infection due to T. violaceum- an incidence rate of 0.75% of all dermatophytosis. Of the patients 59 were Greeks, 15 Greek Gypsies and 30 immigrants mostly from Albania (50%). Of them 58 were children, 46 adults (mainly women, 34 cases). Trichophyton violaceum infection was presented with a variety of manifestations (127 cases). The prevailing was tinea capitis present in 85 patients - 57 children, 24 women and four men (women : men 6 : 1). Tinea capitis together with other forms of the infection was found in 14 patients. Tinea facie, corporis, manuum, barbae and unguium were seen in nineteen patients. The isolation rate of T. violaceum infection in the Greek population remained at a low level for three decades after the mid-1960s. However, a substantial increase in the isolation rate is observed in the mid-1990s attributed mainly to the influx of economic immigrants from countries where the infection is endemic.
