Abstract
Skin scales from 228 patients, referred to the Department of Andrology at the University of Hamburg during 1972--76, were examined mycologically, because of being suspect of mycotic infections. In 54 cases dermatophytes were isolated, and yeasts were found in 13 cases. Nocardia minutissima and Malassezia furfur were present in 138 and 25 cases, respectively. In 12 patients, mixed infections were diagnosed; the infective organisms were yeasts in 46.2% of the cases, dermatophytes in 11.1%, and Malassezia furfur was represented in 8%. The infections were localized in the inguinal region in 208 patients.Keywords
