This study reports a case of ringworm in a Chinchilla lanigera, attributed to stress and contact with canine material contaminated with Microsporum canis.

In this systematic review, researchers found that Tinea capitis in individuals aged 65 or older is frequently misdiagnosed, primarily affects women, and often presents with inflammatory symptoms; systemic antifungal therapy led to clinical cure in 91.2% of cases.

This study found trichoscopy to be a quick and effective method for diagnosing and monitoring tinea capitis in children, with improvements in trichoscopic features observed by week 2 and full recoveries confirmed mycologically by week 8.

This review discusses feline dermatophytosis and emphasizes the importance of early detection and appropriate treatment, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case analysis found that trichoscopy is a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring treatment progress in tinea capitis by distinguishing between Microsporum and Trichophyton etiologies.
