Abstract：
In this part 1 of a 2-part continuing medical education series, the epidemiology, clinical features, and diagnostic methods for fungal skin neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), which include eumycetoma, chromoblastomycosis, paracoccidioidomycosis, sporotrichosis, emergomycosis, talaromycosis, and lobomycosis, are reviewed. These infections, several of which are officially designated as NTDs by the World Health Organization (WHO), cause substantial morbidity and stigma worldwide and are receiving increased attention due to the potential for climate change-related geographic expansion. Domestic incidence may be increasing in the setting of global travel and immunosuppression. United States dermatologists may play a central role in early detection and initiation of appropriate treatment, leading to decreased morbidity and mortality.
摘要：
在由两部分组成的继续医学教育系列的第一部分中，流行病学,临床特征,和真菌皮肤被忽视热带病（NTDs）的诊断方法，其中包括Eumycetoma，成色真菌病,副角菌病,孢子丝菌病,真菌病,塔拉真菌病,和大孢子菌病，被审查。这些感染,其中一些被世界卫生组织(世卫组织)正式指定为NTD，在全球范围内引起大量发病率和污名，并且由于与气候变化相关的地理扩展的潜力而受到越来越多的关注。在全球旅行和免疫抑制的背景下，国内发病率可能会增加。美国皮肤科医生可能在早期发现和开始适当治疗方面发挥核心作用，导致发病率和死亡率下降。
