ABSTRACT
Tinea capitis, a dermatophyte infection involving the hair shaft on the scalp, is primarily a disease of preadolescent children. Trichophyton or Microsporum species of dermatophytes transmitted by humans or animals are commonly associated with this disease. Clinical presentations are seborrheic-like scale, 'black dot' pattern, inflammatory tinea capitis with kerion or tiny pustules in the scalp. We report an interesting case of tinea capitis with rapid progression caused by Trichophyton mentagrophytes in an 11-year-old girl. The patient was treated with 125 mg of oral terbinafine and topical flutrimazole cream for one month.
