摘要

印支毛癣菌是一种具有抗真菌性的真菌，感染旺盛。世界各地越来越多地报道了这种疾病，给诊断带来了重大挑战。我们描述了一个有孟加拉国旅行史的幼儿，呈现出对标准抗真菌治疗无反应的皮肤真菌病的持续环状鳞屑斑块。真菌培养中毛癣菌种类的错误鉴定延误了适当的治疗，用一个疗程的伊曲康唑解决了皮疹。本病例强调需要加强临床怀疑和经验性治疗的价值，以管理小儿支气管炎感染。

Presumed Trichophyton indotineae Infection in Children: A Call for Heightened Clinical Awareness.

Trichophyton indotineae is a fungus that is often antifungal-resistant and presents with exuberant infection. It has been increasingly reported across the world, posing significant diagnostic challenges. We describe a case of a toddler with a history of travel to Bangladesh, presenting with persistent annular scaling plaques of dermatophytosis that were unresponsive to standard antifungal treatments. Misidentification of the Trichophyton species on fungal culture delayed appropriate treatment, with resolution of the rash with a course of itraconazole. This case underscores the need for heightened clinical suspicion and the value of empiric therapy in managing pediatric T. indotineae infection.
