  • Title: Tinea corporis due to Trichophyton tonsurans Malmsten--report of a patient from Zaire.
    Author: Nenoff P, Haustein UF.
    Journal: Mycoses; 1997 Sep; 40(3-4):127-9. PubMed ID: 9375501.
    Abstract:
    Trichophyton tonsurans is an anthropophilic dermatophyte that is predominantly responsible in man for tinea capitis. Although this fungus has a world-wide distribution, most reports of the occurrence of Trichophyton tonsurans infections originate from the USA, Latin America and some European countries. A 31-year-old African woman, formerly a resident of Zaire, with tinea corporis caused by Trichophyton tonsurans infection is described here.
