Tinea capitis is a common dermatophyte infection of the scalp in children. Dermatophytes are classified into three genera; tinea capitis is caused predominantly by Trichophyton or Microsporum species.

Management of tinea corporis, tinea cruris, and tinea pedis: A comprehensive review
The prevalence of superficial mycotic infection worldwide is 20-25% of which dermatophytes are the most common agents. Recent developments in understanding the pathophysiology of dermatophytosis have confirmed the central role of cell-mediated immunity in countering these infections.

COLLAB: A Global Survey of Clinical and Laboratory Assessment in Alopecia Areata by Hair Specialists
ABSTRACT Background Alopecia areata (AA) is a common non‐scarring alopecia. Data continue to emerge on associations with autoimmune and other conditions.

SummaryDermatophytes are hyphomycetes that can degrade keratin. This puts them in a position to cause infections of the keratin‐containing superficial skin. The resulting clinical picture is called tinea. The pathogenesis and course of tinea is decisively determined by pathogen‐related factors and by the defense mechanisms of the host.

Dermoscopy in tinea manuum [PDF]
Tinea manuum is a dermatophytosis which is often mistaken for other keratodermas, especially palmar psoriasis and chronic hand eczema. We report the use of dermoscopy as a diagnostic aid in a case of tinea manuum. The dermoscopic clue turned out to be the presence of whitish scaling located mainly in the furrows.
