In the present study, we determined the incidence of dermatophyte species causing superficial mycoses among outpatients referred to the Department of Dermatology of the "La Sapienza" University of Rome between 2002 and 2004. Of the 3160 subjects studied, 1275 (40.3%) were positive for fungal infection, but only 252 (19.7%) of these had infections caused by dermatophytes. The dermatophyte most frequently isolated was Microsporum canis. Our epidemiological data were compared with those obtained previously by other authors in the same geographic area. For the first time we described an inversion of the T. rubrum/T. mentagrophytes ratio, the latter being more frequently encountered. We also observed the emergence of M. audouinii.
在本研究中，我们确定了2002年至2004年间转诊至罗马“萨皮恩扎”大学皮肤科门诊的患者中引起浅表真菌病的皮肤癣菌种类的发生率。在3160名研究对象中，1275名（40.3%）真菌感染呈阳性，但其中只有252名（19.7%）是由皮肤癣菌引起的感染。最常分离出的皮肤癣菌是犬小孢子菌。我们将我们的流行病学数据与同一地理区域其他作者先前获得的数据进行了比较。我们首次描述了红色毛癣菌/须癣毛癣菌比例的倒置，后者更为常见。我们还观察到奥杜盎小孢子菌的出现。
