Dermatophyte infections are exceedingly rare in neonates, possibly due to the thin stratum corneum and high sebum content of neonatal skin. Only a handful of cases of tinea faciei have been reported in neonates, with the majority of reports occuring in India. Here, we report what to our knowledge is the earliest reported presentation of tinea faciei in the United States. We also provide a brief literature review of other reported cases of tinea faciei in neonates less than 30 days of age.
皮肤癣菌感染在新生儿中极为罕见，可能是由于新生儿皮肤角质层薄且皮脂含量高。仅有少数新生儿面部癣的病例报告，其中大多数报告来自印度。在此，我们报告据我们所知美国最早报告的新生儿面部癣病例。我们还简要回顾了其他年龄小于30天的新生儿面部癣病例的文献。
