Abstract
Penile involvement was seen in 19.5% of 261 patients, aged 11 to 30 years, with tinea cruris. It was more common in patients under the age of 20 years (p less than 0.05). The increased incidence is probably related to the use of langota, a semiocclusive undergarment that may favor the growth of dermatophytes.Entities:
