title: [Dermatomycoses as occupational diseases. The causative agents, sources of infection and the involved occupations].
abstract: Fungal diseases of the skin can be occupational dermatoses. This applies in particular to diseases due to microorganisms acquired from animals. A discussion of the relationship between occupation and disease, however, is not only pertinent in regards to dermatophytoses due to zoophilic fungi but also with those due to geophilic and--to a certain extent--even anthropophilic ones. The same is true of candidiasis. The present review deals with the various standpoints concerning the role of occupation in the development of cutaneous mycoses. In addition casuistic evidence for the various types disease, is compiled and discussed.
