title: [Dermatophyte flora in a catchment area of the Hamburg military hospital].
abstract: Our article deals with the evaluation of all mycologic examinations carried out at the mycologic laboratory of the Department of Dermatology, Hamburg Military Hospital, from April 1983 through March 1988. With regard to the growth of dermatophytes, 835 cultures were found positive out of a total of 10,000 specimens. Our list of dermatophytes is classified according to both the incidence of the individual pathogen and the part of the body it was found on. The most common dermatophyte was Trichophyton rubrum (78.2%). Our results are compared to those of previous studies on dermatophytes.
