TRICHOPHYTON VIOLACEUM INFECTION IN AN INDIAN SCHOOL

ABSTRACT: Trichophyton violaceum infection was found in 26% of 69 children attending a public boarding school. The possible source of infection may have been the adult women from the gypsy community discussed. Treatment with systemic griseofulvin and external sulphur salicylic ointment eliminated the infection in all affected individuals.
