Tinea corporis caused by an unusual strain of Microsporum audouinii that perforates hair in vitro
Mycoses, 06/24/09
Brasch J et al. - The authors report on a dermatophyte infection acquired by a young woman from Germany who had worked in Ghana. The strain isolated from her skin lesions showed morphological and physiological features compatible with Microsporum audouinii but a clearly positive hair perforation test made its definite identification by conventional methods equivocal. A genetic analysis finally unambiguously revealed Microsporum audouinii.
