Abstract

We retrospectively evaluated the epidemiology of onychomycosis and/or paronychia in 172 patients attending the Clinic of Dermatology and Venereology over a 5 year period. Although yeast isolates, belonging to the Candida species, represented the most frequent etiologic agents of these infections, an increasing prevalence of fungal infections due to emerging fungal pathogens (EFP) was noted throughout this time period. In particular, EFP as causative agents of these infections increased from 0 to 28.4% from 1998 to 2002.
