Abstract
Summary: 41.6% of the dermatophytoses observed in the Dept. of Dermatology at Florence between 1982 and 1984 were caused by Trichophyton rubrum. The most frequent dermatophytoses were tinea pedis, tinea cruris and tinea corporis, all of which particularly affected males. The data are compared to those of a previous study (1979–1981) showing that the incidence of tinea pedis and tinea cruris has increased since then. Certain unusual clinical cases are described.
