Abstract: | Conclusion Nail-infections caused by dermatophytes are not rare in areas where tinea capitis is endemic. The infection is most prevalent in the age group between 11–20 years predominantly in females in whom infections may last up to the age of 60 years. Candida nail-infections are becoming an important clinical problem increasing in frequency especially among women. It seems that Candida nail-infections are an urban disease. The significance of opportunistic fungi has to be elucidated, especially in cases where no other known pathogenic fungi or microorganisms could be proved.Read in the meeting of the First Congress of the International Society for Tropical Dermatology, Naples, June 8–13, 1964. |
