ABSTRACT
Trichophyton rubrum is an anthropophilic dermatophyte that is found all over the world, It has become one of the most important causative agents in tinea unguium and tinea pedis. But tinea capitis caused by T. rubrum is rare. Tinea capitis is uncommon in adult. We report a case of tinea capitis caused by T. rubrum in a 67-year-old female, who showed fine scaly erythematous pustules with alopecia on the frontal scalp for 2 months. Culture from a scalp lesion of patient on Sabouraud dextrose agar showed typical whitish cottony colonies of T. rubrum. The patient had been treated with terbinafine.
