Case reports. Tinea gladiatorum due to Trichophyton mentagrophytes.
Two cases of tinea gladiatorum due to Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. quinckeanum are described. A pet rabbit was probably the primary source of infection, which was then spread further by man-to-man contact. Besides these two patients, four other members of the same wrestling team were affected by tinea corporis.
