  1. annular
    - small spreading circular areas of erythema that become scaly in center with red margins
    BECOME CHRONIC

trichophyton interdigitale

44
Q

tinea unguium associated with

A

tinea pedis and magnum infections in males after puberty

45
Q

tinea unguium pathogenesis

A

unknown incubation period, nail injury predisposes infection

infection starts under nail plate of fingers or toes , grow out of nail plate into stratum corneum

46
Q

s/s tinea unguiumm

A

soft friable keratin, THICKENED NAIL

causes white patches/pits

47

48
Q

tx tinea unguium

A

terbinafide

most infections become resistant and are chronic

49
Q

sub ungual dermatophytosis

A

lateral or distal edges of nail are first involved, then develop into nail plate– brittle friable and thickened

50
Q

A

tricophyton interdigitale
epidermophyton flocossum
microsporum gypseum

on palms and fingers

51
Q

epi tinea manum

A

world wide

associated with males

52
Q

pathogenesis tinea manum

A

infection begins due to maceration ( moisture due to extended wear like gloves) due to occupational activities

infection result in lesions that are exfoliative, erythematous and scaly sheets if stub

53
Q

s.s. tinea manum

A

diffuse hyperkeratosis of palms and fencers with concentric exfoliation of skin

scaly sheets develop on dorsal of hand

jock itch

57
Q

epidemiology tinea cruris

A

worldwide p2p areal and fomites

20-30 males commonly infected

58
Q

pathogenesis tinea cruris

A

hyphae invade groin and perianal areas causing edematous lesions

59
Q

A

circular lesions in groin and scrotum areas
develops into serpiginous* erythematous lesions

erythema and intense itching occur

60

epidermophyton- club shaped macroconidia

tricophyton- microconidia

61
Q
