Info

Pediatric Superficial Fungal Infections Superficial fungal infections are limited to the epidermis, as opposed to systemic fungal infections Three groups of cutaneous fungi cause superficial infections: dermatophytes, Malassezia spp., and Candida spp. The term tinea is used for dermatophytoses and is modified according to the anatomic site of infection, e.g., tinea pedis The most common cutaneous fungal infections in children differ from those in adults. • Diaper dermatitis is the most common dermatologic condition in infants, diagnosed in approximately 1 million pediatric outpatient visits annually • Tinea capitis is the most common dermatologic disorder in school- aged children in the US, where the vast majority of cases are caused by the dermatophyte Tricophyton tonsurans 4
