Abstract
Superficial fungous infections of the skin often are difficult therapeutic problems especially if the laboratory identification of the organism, necessary to guide selection of means of treatment, is not obtained. Proper diagnosis will reveal that some infections need certain specific antifungal drugs topically applied, another group will yield to other less specific topical therapy, and a third type can be successfully influenced only by oral administration of griseofulvin.
