BACKGROUND
Tinea capitis remains a prevalent health problem among school-aged children.
OBJECTIVE
To estimate the prevalence of tinea capitis among primary school students, in Fayoum, Egypt with identification of etiological agents in both public and private primary schools.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted in twelve primary schools. The students were selected from different grades with a total number of 12,128 students. Hair and scalp were clinically examined for any lesions that may suspect tinea capitis and mycological samples were collected for direct microscopy and culture.
RESULTS
The prevalence of tinea capitis in the study group was 0.4% and higher in public than private schools (73.5% versus 26.5% respectively). Boys were more affected than girls with boy to girls' ratio 5:1. Intrafamily history of infection was present in 40.8% of tested group while 51% showed low social standard profile. Mycological culture revealed that was the predominant isolated organism followed by (52% and 36% respectively).
CONCLUSION
is replacing as an etiology for tinea capitis in Egypt with lower prevalence rate than reported previously.

目的
评估埃及法尤姆地区小学生头癣的患病率，并确定公立和私立小学头癣的病原体。
方法
在12所小学进行了一项横断面研究。从不同年级选取学生，共12128名。对头发和头皮进行临床检查，以查找可能怀疑为头癣的任何病变，并采集真菌学样本进行直接显微镜检查和培养。
结果
研究组头癣患病率为0.4%，公立学校高于私立学校（分别为73.5%和26.5%）。男孩比女孩受影响更严重，男女比例为5:1。40.8%的检测组有家族感染史，而51%显示社会经济水平较低。真菌培养显示，[此处原文缺失具体真菌名称]是主要分离出的病原体，其次是[此处原文缺失具体真菌名称]（分别为52%和36%）。
结论
在埃及，[此处原文缺失具体真菌名称]正在取代[此处原文缺失具体真菌名称]成为头癣的病因，患病率低于先前报道。
