Tinea capitis (TC) is a contagious infection that affects mainly children and teenagers. A retrospective study was realized at the mycology-parasitology department of the Ibn Sina hospital in Rabat, Morocco. The study includes 125 cases of TC. The mean age is 12.73 ± 11.61 year. The isolation of TC is dominated by two species Trichophyton violaceum 76 (60.8%) and Microsporum canis 27 (21.6%). Trichophyton verrucosum was isolated only in male and all of rural origin. In adults over 18 years, the most isolated species is T. violaceum (six cases) in females. For the last thirty years, the epidemiological profile of TC remains almost the same in Morocco.
头癣(TC)是一种主要影响儿童和青少年的传染性感染疾病。在摩洛哥拉巴特的伊本·西那医院的真菌学-寄生虫学部门进行了一项回顾性研究。该研究包括125例头癣病例。平均年龄为12.73±11.61岁。头癣的分离菌株以两种为主,即紫色毛癣菌76株(60.8%)和犬小孢子菌27株(21.6%)。疣状毛癣菌仅在男性且均来自农村地区被分离出。在18岁以上的成年人中,女性分离出的最主要菌株是紫色毛癣菌(6例)。在过去三十年里,摩洛哥头癣的流行病学特征几乎保持不变。
