Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Trichophyton soudanense is an anthropophilic dermatophyte originating in Africa. Over the last 30 years sporadic cases have been reported in countries that had colonial relations with the endemic areas. In recent times, as a result of growing racial mixing linked to migratory movements, this strain has become increasingly integrated with the species most commonly responsible for dermatophytoses. This phenomenon has occurred, although only recently, in Italy too, where there has been a heavy influx of foreign immigrants over the last few years.
