This is the second report on an isolation of the variety raubitschekii of Trichophyton (T.) rubrum in Germany. The patient was a young man born in Cameroon who presented with an extensive tinea corporis et manuum. The variety raubitschekii can be distinguished from similar looking dermatophytes by its brownish color, by the formation of abundant T. rubrum-like macroconidia, by the production of urease, by a negative hair perforation test, and by DNA analysis. In addition, further characteristics of this variety were determined. So far, the variety raubitschekii has been primarily found as a cause of tinea corporis in patients from Asia or Africa. In the future, it should be considered as a potential pathogen in Germany as well.
这是关于在德国分离出红色毛癣菌劳比茨基变种的第二篇报告。患者是一名出生于喀麦隆的年轻男性，患有广泛的体癣和手癣。劳比茨基变种可通过其褐色、形成大量类似红色毛癣菌的大分生孢子、产生脲酶、毛发穿孔试验阴性以及DNA分析与外观相似的皮肤癣菌相区分。此外，还确定了该变种的其他特征。到目前为止，劳比茨基变种主要在亚洲或非洲患者中被发现是体癣的病因。未来，在德国也应将其视为一种潜在病原体。
