Dermoscopic Visualization of Vellus Hair Involvement in Tinea Corporis: A Criterion for Systemic Antifungal Therapy?

Nicole Knöpfel1, Luis Javier del Pozo1, Maria del Mar Escudero1, Ana Martín-Santiago1.   

Abstract

Dermoscopy has been shown to be a valuable tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of several infectious diseases. We report a case of tinea corporis in an infant in whom dermoscopy helped us to determine vellus hair involvement, causing treatment to be switched from topical to systemic antifungal therapy.
