M. canis was identified on cultures from the infected nail and the hair of the pet cat. The mid twentieth century witnessed a huge human outbreak of dermatophytosis in rural areas of Hungary caused by T. quinckeanum [10]. The rodents (mice) had skin lesions as a manifestation of mouse...
All these individuals do not inhabit hospitals only, but are in fact more likely present in their private homes due to patient and bed management policies and costs, and most definitely to avoid exposure to nosocomial infection agents and multi-drug resistant microbes [224]. Should then fungal ...
