A clinical case of leg skin chromomycosis is described, a review of the literature is given, the main modern medical methods, as well as methods of historical significance are briefly described. The individual links of the pathogenesis of chromomycosis (CM) are described, a list of nosologies to which chromomycosis should be differentiated is presented.Materials and methods. A clinical case of chromomycosis in a 63-year-old patient is presented. The process developed as a result of systematic frequent injury of the shins with sharp parts of plants.Results. The diagnosis of chromomycosis was established on the basis of anamnesis, clinic data, detection of the pathogen in the biopsy material.Conclusions. Thus, CM is a serious deep skin mycosis, which still causes an epidemiologically significant morbidity in workers of agricultural and related fields! It is difficult to treat it, especially in more severe clinical forms. Treatment usually consists of long periods of treatment with antifungal drugs, often associated with physical procedures and immunotherapy. This publication is intended to extract HMM from the list of ′forgotten diseases′ at least for a short time!
Onychomycosis is widespread all over the world. The choice of treatment tactics continues to be a difficult task for dermatologists. The use of combination therapy showed high clinical and mycological results of treatment, and also reduced the risk of relapses after discontinuation of therapy. Evaluation of the effectiveness of this therapy is based on knowledge of the reverse development of clinical symptoms.
Foot skin mycosis is one of the most topical problems in dermatovenerology due to the extreme prevalence of these diseases. Treatment of foot skin mycoses is the most important step in the prevention of onychomycosis. The tactics and a specific sequence of the external therapy depends on the specific clinical form of mycosis: acute inflammatory forms require the prescription of solutions and gels, subacute forms required creams, chronic forms require adhesive agents. Exudative form of the foot skin mycosis with vesiculation is an indication for the combination therapy.
