included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups. In group A (27
patients) 800 mg of Ketoconazole was given orally in
two equal doses of 400
mg each at one week interval. In group B (20 patients) Tioconazole
1% Dermal Cream was applied topically twice a day for four weeks. Results were
evaluated by clinical assessment as well as microscopic examination of scales
for malassezia furfur at
the beginning of the study, one week, two week and four week interval. 100%
clearance (all 27 patients showing good response clinically and negative
microscopy) at four weeks seen in group A which was significantly higher than
15% results (only 3 out of 20 patients showing good response and only 1 patient
out of 20 i.e. 5% showing negative microscopy) in group B (p<0.001). Rest of
the patients in group B showed only moderate or poor response.

came for follow up. The incidence of various disorders was calculated in new
patients only. Some patients had more than one cutaneous
problems and were included in both groups. Eczema was
the largest group with Seborrhoeic, Contact, Atopic,
LSC and Discoid eczema, in that order of frequency, as its commonly occurring
sub types. Second largest group was Infections subdivided into fungal,

The purpose of the study was to see various clinical patterns of dermatophyte infections and to isolate the causative
species of fungus. 25 patients of various age groups (age range 6 to 60 years)
and both sexes were included in the study. Their clinical features were noted
and samples taken for blood count, urine examination and blood sugar level.
Skin scrapings, nail clipping or hair root were taken for KOH microscopy and
fungal culture. All the patients involving scalp showed some patch of alopecia
(scarring / non-scarring). Pruritis, scaling and erythema to some extent were seen with raised and active
borders and central clearing in patients with involvement of glabrous skin. 5
cases showed raised ESR, 4 showed UTI, 3 showed low Hb
level and 2 showed increased TLC. Tinea capitis was seen to be caused by T.tonsurans
& T.rubrum, Tinea barbae by T.verrucosum, Tinea faciei by M.gypseum, Tinea corporis by M.ferrugineum & T.verrucosum, Tinea pedis and Tinea cruris by T.verrucosum and Onychomycosis by T.rubrum, T.mantagrophyte, T.tonsurans and T.verrucosum in that order of frequency. The results were
