`
`A U.S. epiderniologic survey of superficial
`
`fungal diseases
`
`Maggi E. Kemna, MT (ASCP), and Boni E. Elewski, MD Cleveland, Ohio
`
`Background: Large—scale studies performed outside the United States have demonstrated that
`most cases of onychomycosis and tinea pedis are caused by dermatophytes, primarily Tri-
`chophyton mbmm. However, other studies have suggested that yeasts and nondermatophytic
`molds may play a role, particularly in onychomycosis.
`Objective: This study was undertaken to determine the epidemiology of superficial fungal
`infections in a U.S. population.
`Methods: Fungal cultures were performed on patients with clinically suspected tinea cruris,
`tinea corporis, tinea capitis, tinea pedis, and onychomycosis.
`Results: Derrnatophytes were the most commonly isolated fungi in each type of superficial
`fungal disease studied. T. rubrum was the most commonly isolated demiatophyte species, al-
`though Trichop/iyton tonsurans was more common in tinea capitis and equally common ir1
`tinea corporis/tinea cruris. In tinea pedis and onychomycosis, dermatophytes appeared in ap-
`proximately 95% and 82% of isolates, respectively. Candida albicans and nondennatophyte
`molds played only a minor role in onychomycosis; C. albicans was isolated in 7% of nail
`cultures and nonderrnatophytic molds were isolated in 11%.
`Conclusion: These results are in general agreement with other major epidemiologic studies
`performed outside the United States. Dermatophytc fungi cause most superficial fungal in-
`fections.
`
`(J Am Acad Dermatol l996;35:539-42.)
`
`Dcrmatophytes cause most superficial fungal in-
`fections, but some yeasts and nonderrnatophytic
`molds are also sometimes involved.‘ Onychomyco—
`sis and tinea pedis are two of the most common su-
`perfimlal fungal diseases. Recent discussion has fo-
`cused on the importance of nondermatophytes in
`these diseases, particularly in onychomycosis.2'4
`How‘:-ver, data from studies in Canada5 and the
`United Kingdom6 indicate that nondermatophytes
`play a small role in these infections.
`Tlizz: purpose of this study was to detennine the
`epidemiology of superficial fungal diseases includ-
`ing onychomycosis, tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea
`Corporis, and tinea capitis in a U.S. population.

`
`METHODS
`
`A total of 1222 specimens (no more than one from each
`patient) were analyzed between January and December
`1994. These specimens of nail, skin, and hair came from
`clinics, private physicians, and clinical trial programs
`(initial isolate). In most instances, data were not available
`on patient demographics. Sixteen states were represented:
`Alabama, California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Louisi-
`ana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, North
`Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, Virginia, and
`Wisconsin.
`
`Specimens were submitted to the laboratory in (1) Sa-
`bouraud’s dextrose agar with 0.04% cyclohexirnide, (2)
`dermatophyte test medium (DTM), or (3) a Derma—Pak
`(Microbiological Supply Co., Toddington, Bedfordshire,
`U.K.). Each specimen that arrived in a Derma—Pak was
`examined by Calcofluor (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis,
`M0.) in 5% potassium hydroxide microscopy and was
`inoculated on Sabouraud’s dextrose agar with and with-
`out ().04% cycloheximide.
`All cultures were incubated at 30° C and checked twice
`
`weekly; a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks was allotted to con-
`firm any negative cultures.
`lnitial cultures that grew fungi suspected to be Trich0-
`phyton were inoculated on Trichophyton agars #1 and #4

`slants and on Christianson’s urea agar slants. Baby mixed
`cereal agar7 plates were used to induce conidia. These
`subcultures were examined after 1 week of incubation at
`
`30° C. If test results were inconclusive, the hair perfora-
`tion test was performed or rice grains were added to
`identify other derrnatophyte species. Nondermatophytic
`molds were often identified by microscopic growth on
`potato dextrose agar and other media and by manipula-
`tion of the temperature and observation of their growth.
`Yeasts were grown in corn meal with Tween 80 agar, by
`means of the Dalmau technique. Growth on media con-
`taining cycloheximide and the presence of fermentation
`in carbohydrates (dextrose, maltose, sucrose, lactose, cel-
`lobiose, and trehalose) helped to identify yeasts. Occa-
`sionally, Christianson’s urea, nitrate assimilation, or car-
`bohydrate assimilation in the API 20C test (bioMerieux
`Vitek, Inc., Hazelwood, Mo.) was used to confirm iden-
`tification.
`
`Slide cultures were performed when necessary. Molds
`growing in culture were routinely blotted with cellophane
`tape, and the material picked up by the tape was applied
`to a slide with Calcofluor in 5% potassium hydroxide.
`Derrnatophyte conidia are produced more rapidly on me-
`dia with less dextrose; therefore dermatophyte—like iso-
`lates were planted on cereal agar and incubation was
`continued for 1 week. The development of additional
`structures during that week indicated a dermatophyte. For
`nonderrnatophytic molds, slide cultures were prepared
`with potato dextrose agar, which encourages growth of
`conidia. When no conidia were seen, tap water, corn meal,
`Czapek solution agars (Difco Co., Detroit, Mich.), and/or
`cereal agars were used for these isolates.
`All totals were tallied with the Paradox (Borland Inter-
`national, Inc., Scotts Valley, Calif.) program.
`
`RESULTS
`
`Of the 1222 specimens analyzed, 561 (45.9%)
`grew at least one fungal species (Table I). The
`pathogen recovery rate varied by disease, from
`50.3% in clinically suspected onychomycosis to
`29.5 % in suspected tinea cruris/tinea corporis. Of the
`specimens that grew fungus, derrnatophytes were
`predominant in each disease (Table 11). Overall, T.
`
`rubrum was the most common derrnatophyte. It was
`present most frequently in onychomycosis and tinea
`pedis, accounting for 76.2% and 78.9% of isolatis,
`respectively. In tinea capitis, T. ronsurans was pre-
`dominant, accounting for 88.1% of all isolates and
`90.2% of derrnatophyte isolates. In tinea cruris/tinea
`corporis, the combined frequency of isolation of T,
`rubmm and T. tonsurans was 40.6%.
`
`C. albicans was isolated in each type of infection
`but was not considered clinically relevant except in
`patients with tinea cruris/tinea corporis.
`
`DISCUSSION
`
`This U.S. study confirms that the vast majority of
`superficial fungal infections are produced by der-
`matophytes. Dermatophytes caused 94.7% of cases
`of tinea pedis and were found in 81.9% of cases of
`onychomycosis. The epidemiology of onychomy-
`cosis and tinea pedis in the United States is similar
`to that reported in Canada5 (90.7% and 97.1% der-
`matophytes, respectively) and in the United King-
`dom6 (80.6% derrnatophytes in onychomycosis);
`dermatophytes are by far the most common fuiigi.
`In the U.K. study, Clayton6 found only 1% Can-
`dida species in the isolates of toenails but 58% in
`those of fingernails; however, the study included
`chronic paronychia as well as onychomycosis and
`had an unusually low rate of recovery (73% of fin-
`gernail isolates failed to grow). Of total samples in
`Clayton’s study, only 16% grew Candida.
`Yeasts have not been shown to be keratinolytic,
`and no mechanism for their primary invasion into
`nails has clearly been established. Yeasts may (Ol-
`onize glabrous skin, hair, and nails and may become
`pathogenic only in association with preexisting
`infection, trauma, loss of epidermal barrier function,
`or immunodeficiency.6=8’9 For example, Candida
`can be recovered from the mouths of 30% of healthy
`adults,” but acute pseudomembranous candidiasis is
`rarely encountered in healthy adults and, wierl
`present, may be a harbinger of diabetes mellitus,
`AIDS, or other primary or secondary immunodefi-
`ciency. To assess the clinical significance of the re—
`covery of Candida, clinical and pathologic correla-
`tion is important. We isolated Candida from 48% of
`tinea cruris/tinea corporis cultures. Without clinical
`correlation the significance is impossible to dcrf:r—
`mine. Likewise, we cultured C. albicans in 2.3% Of
`scalp isolates, but because C. albicans does not cause
`
`tinea capitis, we believe that all of the pathog”I15
`were dennatophytes. In tinea pedis, 5.3% of isolates

`“C0I1taminants” from glabrous skin, hair, and nails.
`Stfingeni criteria must be met before a yeast or non—
`
`dermatophytic mold grown from a specimen is ac-
`cepted as a causative agent. English” has proposed
`that a nondermatophytic mold must grow from at
`least 5 of 20 inocula, with no dermatophyte growth,
`to be considered clinically significant. Summerbell,

`croscopy of atypical hyphae and/or conidia to the list
`of criteria.
`
`The relations between derinatophytes and non-
`dermatophytes in onychomycosis may be similar to
`the situation in interdigital tinea pedis in which der-
`matophytosis simplex can progress to der1natophy—
`tosis complex.l2=13 According to Leyden, dermato-
`phyte infection of the toe—webs may create a hospi-
`table environment for bacteria that normally would
`not colonize the area. These bacteria can overgrow
`and mask the underlying derrnatophyte infection.
`Similarly, dennatophyte infection of the nail may
`create conditions favorable to both bacteria and
`
`saprophytic molds, which on culture often overgrow
`dermatophytes, impeding their isolation. Therefore a
`saprophytic mold growing from a patient with a
`clinical impression of onychomycosis may not be
`the original pathogen, but may represent valid
`growth. Laboratory isolation of the dermatophyte
`may have been impeded by the saprophyte in the
`same way isolation of dermatophytes can be im-
`peded by bacteria in the derrnatophytosis complex
`syndrome.12=13 This phenomenon in the nail could
`be called “onychomycosis complex.” Fungal cul-
`ture results need to be interpreted closely in correla-
`tion with the clinical situation. The clinician should
`
`when the potassium hydroxide
`be alert for
`reveals septate hyphae and only saprophytes were
`recovered in the laboratory.
`The majority of cultures received in our study
`were already planted on media plates; therefore no
`direct microscopy was done; this hampered analysis
`of the significance of the recovered nonderrnato—
`phytic molds (Table IT).
`The most likely reason that more than half the
`cultures failed to grow is that there was no fun-
`gus. Fungi cause only 50% of nail disorders,” and
`other skin conditions can mimic cutaneous fungal
`infections. Other factors that may account for the
`
`low recovery rate are antimycotic use by the pa.
`tient, variable methods of culture collection, and
`
`bacterial or saprophytic overgrowth. In Clayton’s
`study6 of onychomycosis, 66% of samples from
`toenails and 73% of samples from fingernails had
`no growth, which is somewhat less than our recov-
`ery rate.
