We identified 5 Thai patients diagnosed with infection after screening of patients with culture results consistent with complex who had negative urease test and confirmed by molecular analysis in DNA sequencing at the internal transcribed spacer region, including abnormalities in the Squalene epoxidase gene in 2 patients, which confirmed the spread of terbinafine resistant dermatophytosis in Thailand.
