Abstract
White superficial onychomycosis (WSO) is defined as fungal infection of the nail plate from dorsalsurface of the nail plate. In English literatures, prevalence of WSO in the general population is about1% to 2%, and the most common causative organism of WSO in adults is Trichophyton mentagrophytesexcept AIDS patients. On the other hand, the prevalence in children is 0.3%. A 6-year-old boy presentedwith whitish patches on his ten toe nails which had developed 4 years previously. He had cerebral palsywith spastic tetraplegia and epilepsy, and had admitted eight times for systemic infections, such aspneumonia and pharyngitis. Trichophyton rubrum was revealed as a causative organism by slide cultureand PCR test. The nails showed improvement after two months of topical treatment with amorolfinenail lacquer. Herein we report a case of childhood multiple WSO caused by Trichophyton rubrum.
