Abstract

The etiologic agents of hairles skin fungal infections were searched in Gaziantep region, using conventional mycologic methods. Scrapings from thrunk,foot, hand and inguinal lesions of 106 male and 50 female patients were examined. 99 of this totally 156 patients' samples gave positive culture result (63.46 %). 17 (17.17 %) of this 99 culture positive patients had candida, 77 (77. 78 %) of them had dermatophyte, and the remaining 5 patients (5.05 %) had both candida and dermatophyte. 57 of isolated 82 dermatophytes (65.51 %) was Trichophyton rubrum, 20 of them (24.40 %) was Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and 5 of them (6.09 %) was Epidermophyton floccosum.Trichophyton rubrum was tlı.e primary agent affecting any parts of the body, according to the anatomicaJ distribution of the Jesion; Trichophyton mentagrophytes was the second etiologic agent except inguinaJ region, and Epiderrnophyton floccosum was the second agent for inguinal region. Consequently, our results has been compared with those of similar research groups.
