背景:真菌性皮肤病是重要的公共卫生问题。皮肤镜检查是一种有用的床旁评估工具,可帮助临床医生诊断各种皮肤肿瘤和一般皮肤病。
目的:这篇简短的综述旨在使临床医生了解头癣等皮肤真菌感染的皮肤镜特征。体癣,隐姓埋名的癣,甲癣,和糠疹孢子囊炎.
方法:使用术语“皮肤镜检”或其同义词搜索PubMed数据库,“头癣”,“体癣”,\"隐身癣\",“甲癣”和“糠疹毛囊炎”。
结果:皮肤镜检查在评估头癣和甲癣中的诊断价值得到了广泛认可。调查体癣皮肤镜特征的研究较少,隐身癣和糠疹毛囊炎,但目前的数据表明,皮肤镜可以帮助临床评估这些疾病。了解皮肤真菌感染的皮肤镜特征有可能提高诊断准确性。
结论:皮肤镜检查在真菌性皮肤病的评估中具有优化诊断准确性的潜力,减少不必要的测试,and,因此,提高临床实践。
BACKGROUND: Fungal dermatological diseases are significant public health issues. Dermoscopy is a useful bedside assessment tool that helps clinicians diagnose various skin neoplasms and general dermatological diseases.
OBJECTIVE: This brief
review aims to update clinicians on the dermoscopic features of cutaneous fungal infections such as tinea capitis, tinea corporis, tinea incognito, onychomycosis, and pityrosporum folliculitis.
METHODS: The PubMed database was searched using the terms \"dermoscopy\" or its synonyms, \"tinea capitis\", \"tinea corporis\", \"tinea incognito\", \"onychomycosis\" and \"pityrosporum folliculitis\".
RESULTS: The diagnostic value of dermoscopy is well-recognised in the evaluation of tinea capitis and onychomycosis. There are fewer studies investigating the dermoscopic features of tinea corporis, tinea incognito and pityrosporum folliculitis, but the current data suggest that dermoscopy can aid clinical evaluation of these diseases. Understanding dermoscopic features of cutaneous fungal infection has the potential to increase diagnostic accuracy.
CONCLUSIONS: Dermoscopy in the evaluation of fungal dermatological diseases has the potential to optimize diagnostic accuracy, reduce unnecessary testing, and, consequently, improve clinical practice.
