  • State of the art in diagnosis and treatment of cutaneous mycoses
    Ginter, G... ; Rieger, E...
    The constant increase in the number and spectrum of fungal infections in dermatology is due to improved recognition as well as to an increasing population of susceptible patiens. This rise in ... prevalence calls for improved methods of diagnosis and management. As with other microbial infections, the diagnosis of fungal disease is based on a combination of clinical observation and laboratory investigations. Laboratory methods for the diagnosis of fungal infection continue to be updated, but depend mostly on microscopic examination and cultivation of the fungus. The classification and identification of fungi is based on their morphology rather than on the nutritional and biochemical differences that are of such importance in the classification of bacteria. The development of new antifungal drugs such as the triazoles and allylamines has improved the treatment of many forms of fungal infections although problems remain. This paper reviews current laboratory diagnosis and management of fungal infections found in Europe.
