Autochthonous case of Trichophyton indotineae in Kuwait
Trichophyton indotineae is an emerging dermatophyte that has remarkable impact on public health worldwide.

description | Trichophyton indotineae is an emerging dermatophyte that has remarkable impact on public health worldwide. In addition to producing severe extensive skin lesions, this species is frequently resistant to terbinafine, used as a first line agent. As a result, the infection is often refractory, making treatment very challenging. The current report describes the first case of Trichophyton indotineae infection in Kuwait. The infected woman had no recent travel history. She failed to respond to several courses of antifungals, but finally responded to voriconazole. The report suggests that T. indotineae is under recognised, hence, active surveillance of dermatophytes is warranted. |
