The patient we present herein is a 6-month-old infant who had erythema and scaling on the central part of the face for 4 months. Both the abundant scaling and the localisation, but also the low age of this infant led to suspect seborrhoeic dermatitis. Direct microscopic examination of scales showed septate hyphae and the cultural examination was also positive for dermatophyte. The found species was Trichophyton mentagrophytes. We describe this patient to highlight the importance of considering tinea faciei in the differential diagnosis of all facial eruptions and the value of mycological examination.
我们在此介绍的患者是一名6个月大的婴儿,其面部中央出现红斑和鳞屑已有4个月。大量的鳞屑、病变部位以及患儿的低龄都让人怀疑是脂溢性皮炎。鳞屑的直接显微镜检查显示有分隔菌丝,真菌培养检查也显示皮肤癣菌呈阳性。所发现的菌种是须癣毛癣菌。我们描述该病例是为了强调在所有面部皮疹的鉴别诊断中考虑面癣的重要性以及真菌学检查的价值。
