초록
Tinea cruris is a superficial dermatophyte infection of the groin. It is the second most common dermatophytosis. Scrotal dermatophystosis develops in low frequency in spite of extensive infection in nearby sites such as groin and thigh. The lesions are usually finely scaly and faint erythematous patch. In our case, the patient presented with erythematous lichenified plaques on the scrotum and groin. It was definitely diagnosed as dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton rubrum. Although scrotal fungal infection is rare, dermatophyte infection should be suspected in cases with scaly lesions on the scrotum.
Abstract
Tinea cruris is a superficial dermatophyte infection of the groin. It is the second most common dermatophytosis. Scrotal dermatophystosis develops in low frequency in spite of extensive infection in nearby sites such as groin and thigh. The lesions are usually finely scaly and faint erythematous patch. In our case, the patient presented with erythematous lichenified plaques on the scrotum and groin. It was definitely diagnosed as dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton rubrum. Although scrotal fungal infection is rare, dermatophyte infection should be suspected in cases with scaly lesions on the scrotum.
