We report two cases of dermatophytosis due to Trichophyton mentagrophytes.Case 1: At the end of February 1996 a 28-year-old housewife developed erythematous itchy plaques on her chest. On March 5 she visited our hospital for this problem and exhibited pustules and papules. She had two pet rabbits inside of her house. In early January, one of the rabbits developed alopecia, and soon the other developed similar lesions. A veterinarian diagnosed the probrem as fungal infection and used antifungal drugs for treatment. We were unable to isolate any fungus from the rabbits, however, the veterinarian had cultured the rabbit's fur on Sabouraud's dextrose agar. The isolated fungus was identified in our laboratory as Trichophyton mentagrophytes.Case 2: At the end of August a 3-year-old boy developed erythematous plaques on his back and face which were treated with antifungal cream at a dermatological clinic as tinea corporis, and improvement was excellent. However, at the end of September, he developed scaly lesions in the occipital region with repidly developing alopecia. On September 14 he visited our hospital for this alopecia with numerous crusts and pustules.In both cases, fungal infections were confirmed by direct examination of the scales or hairs using a KOH preparation. Organisms isolated from these lesions were identified as Trichophyton mentagrophytes. Mating experiment with Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii revealed that the strain from case 2 belonged to (-) mating type.
