Severe kerion Celsi caused by Trichophyton quinckeanum
We report a severe case of kerion Celsi of the scalp in a previously healthy 13-year-old girl due to Trichophyton quinckeanum, an emerging dermatophyte species in Europe. The species was definitely identified by DNA sequencing and the patient was successfully treated by oral terbinafine for 6 weeks.
Kerion Celsi is a severe inflammatory form of tinea capitis, which is characterised by a purulent discharge and alopecia [1]. It typically occurs in children infected with zoophilic dermatophytes, such as Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and an increasing number of cases caused by other Trichophyton species has recently been reported [2]. Herein we report a severe case of kerion Celsi of the scalp caused by the emerging species Trichophyton quinckeanum, which was successfully treated by oral antifungal.
期刊介绍:
The Journal de Mycologie Medicale / Journal of Medical Mycology (JMM) publishes in English works dealing with human and animal mycology. The subjects treated are focused in particular on clinical, diagnostic, epidemiological, immunological, medical, pathological, preventive or therapeutic aspects of mycoses. Also covered are basic aspects linked primarily with morphology (electronic and photonic microscopy), physiology, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, immunochemistry, genetics, taxonomy or phylogeny of pathogenic or opportunistic fungi and actinomycetes in humans or animals. Studies of natural products showing inhibitory activity against pathogenic fungi cannot be considered without chemical characterization and identification of the compounds responsible for the inhibitory activity.
JMM publishes (guest) editorials, original articles, reviews (and minireviews), case reports, technical notes, letters to the editor and information. Only clinical cases with real originality (new species, new clinical present action, new geographical localization, etc.), and fully documented (identification methods, results, etc.), will be considered.
Under no circumstances does the journal guarantee publication before the editorial board makes its final decision.
The journal is indexed in the main international databases and is accessible worldwide through the ScienceDirect and ClinicalKey platforms.
