[A historical view of dermatomycology].
This historical review is focussed on clinical aspects of dermatomycology on one hand and on the discovery of fungi as pathogenic agents in dermatologic diseases on the other hand. This latter period in the 19th century established the beginning of dermatomycology. The basic role of fungus-host-interrelationship is mentioned with reference to earliest microscopical investigations of this issue on plants by Marcello Malphighi in the late 17th century.
