Dermatophytoses have peculiar aspects in children, making them different from adult dermatophytoses. The author reviewed 139 of his personal cases to evidence these peculiarities; based on these cases he was able to discuss: a) clinical aspects of dermatophytoses and the frequency of each form in the child; b) analysis of the species of dermatophytes isolated in the 101 patients studied. The author adds a therapeutical orientation for cases of dermatophytosis in children.
