[On the epidemiology of dermatophytoses in Granada (Andalousia, Spain).].
One hundred and fourteen dermatophytes were isolated during the period from January 1995 to May 1997 in our outpatient's center of Dermatology, at the Universitary Hospital of Granada. Trichophyton rubrum (35.96%) was the commonest species, followed by Trichophyton mentagrophytes (21.19%) and Microsporum canis (21.19%). On the clinical ground, tinea unguium (24.56%) was predominant, with tinea corporis (23.68%) and also tinea capitis (2192 %). Our results are compared with recent data from other Spanish regions, specially Andalousia.
