Auszug

Dear Editors, we report a case of 36 year-old male military officer with progredient dermatophyte infection on cutis glabrea, with duration more than 3 months, currently affecting approximately 65 % of the skin surface (Fig. 1 and 1b). Lack of comorbidities and concomitant medication were reported. Increased disseminated sweating was reported by the patient, associated with the military service in the border regions of the Republic of Bulgaria. Trichophyton rubrum was identified as an infectious agent. A systemic therapy with terbinafine 250 mg was introduced in regimen once-daily for two months, combined with local therapy with fluconazole and prednisone containing extemporal forms. Complete remission was achieved with resolutions of the symptoms.
