    Abstract:
    The total number of dermatophytoses (7393) included 2025 (27.4%) tinea pedis cases. Etiological factors in descending order by contribution were: Trichophyton rubrum (41.7%), Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. granulosum (30.9%), T. mentagrophytes var. interdigitale (10.0%), Epidermophyton floccosum (7.4%), T. mentagrophytes var. quinckeanum (6.9%), Trichophyton tonsurans (2.3%), Trichophyton spec. (0.4%), Trichophyton terrestre (0.2%), Trichophyton violaceum (0.1%). In the years 1987-93 the incidence of tinea pedis substantially increased over 1994-96. Today tinea pedis is second by incidence among all clinical forms of dermatophyte infections of skin and skin appendages in the Lódź region.
