Tinea imbricata as a clue to occult immunodeficiency.

Lidia Maroñas Jiménez1, Verónica Monsálvez, Carlota Gutiérrez García-Rodrigo, Concepción Postigo Llorente.   

Abstract

Tinea imbricata (TI) is a geographically restricted dermatophytosis with distinctive clinical and immunologic features. We present a case of TI occurring in a native Brazilian child with previously undiagnosed human immunodeficiency virus infection. Physicians should bear in mind that diagnosis of TI may be a clinical clue to potentially serious underlying immunodeficiency.
