본 연구를 통해 국내기록은 있으나 정확한 발생현황이나 현재까지 증거표본의 소재가 불분명해왔던 옷좀나방(Tinea translucens)에 대한 분포가 확인되었다. 본 연구를 위해서 국내 주요 자연사박물관의 수장고로부터 채집한 유충을 사육하였으며, 우화한 성충으로부터 옷좀나방의 발생을 확인할 수 있었다. 유충은 포유류 박제의 털과 가죽을 먹고, 1령 때부터 견사로 만들어진 주머니(case)를 만들며 종령기에 그 안에서 용화한다. 성충의 도판, 생식기 도해 및 종의 발생현황과 분포에 대해 보고한다. 또한 생활사에 대해서도 간략히 소개한다.

Objectives : This study is to report a case of tinea pedis accompanied with erythema and pruritus, treated with Korean medicine treatment. Methods : A 26-year-old female patient has suffered from erythema and pruritus on her right 3rd toe. She applied desoximetasone ointment on it for a month, but the effect didn't last long and the symptoms got worse. After disappointing application of the corticosteroid, she received Korean medicine treatment including herbal medicine and herbal external medication for 1.5 months. Results : The skin symptoms such as erythema and pruritus were remarkably improved. Also, the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) of pruritus changed from 4 to 0. Conclusions : This case report suggests that Korean medicine may have a role in treating tinea pedis with some skin symptoms such as erythema and pruritus.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report the treatment of the Tinea corporis treated by Korean medicine. Methods : The skin lesion with keratin were scraped and placed on a slide glass, and the KOH solution was dropped and observed under a microscope. After the hyphae was confirmed, a ChoPho-bang was prescribed and applied twice a day. Results : In the KOH test performed again 3 weeks after treatment, no hyphae was found and the skin lesion was completely disappeared. Conclusions : For Tinea Corporis, the KOH test is recommended to distinguish it from other skin diseases, and application of ChoPho-bang is effective for treatment.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends on tinea pedis in studies of Korean medicine.Methods : We searched papers using NDSL, KISS, RISS and KTKP(Korean Traditional Knowledge Portal). The first search used the keyword "Tinea pedis" in NDSL, KISS, RISS and KTKP. Used searching duration was not specified.Results : Studies found in NDSL, KISS and RISS were 122 and 118 studies were excluded. Studies found in KTKP were five papers and four studies of them were excluded. Finally five studies were selected and analyzed. Two studies of five selected ones were experimental researches and three studies were clinical researches. Among 2 researches of experimental researches, one of them was about antifungal efficacy of herbal medicines and ethahol extract of the mixture of Sophorae Subprostratae Radix, Aconiti Radix and Hibisci Syriaci Cortex and hot water extract of Phellodendri Cortex were effective. The other was about antifungal effect of the medicinal herb extraction method and vinegar extract was effective. Among 3 researches of clinical researches, there were one clinical study and two case studies. Functional soap containing herbal medicines and bee venom therapy were effective.Conclusions : As we looked for five researches, which were two experimental studies, one clinical study and two case studies. It is possible to treat tinea pedis with korean medical approach by conclusions of 5 researches. We expect that further researches will be proceeded and following results can be actively used as clinical treatments.

An epidemiological study was performed on zoophilic dermatophytes. The number of patients with zoophilic dermatophytes diagnosed on clinical findings and culture at the Catholic Dermatological Clinic in Daegu City were 1,339 for 10 years from January 1995 to December 2004. Species of zoophilic dermatophytes isolated from 47,925 patients with dermatophytes were as follows; Trichophyton(T.) rubrum was isolated from 43,702 (91.2%), T. interdigitale 2,660 (5.6%), Epidermophyton(E.) floccosum 43 (0.1%), T. tonsurans 131 (0.3%), T. mentagrophytes 625 (1.3%), T. verrucosum 56 (0.2%), Microsporum(M.) canis 658 (1.4%), and M. gypseum 50 (0.1%). Zoophilic dermatophytes infections were chiefly Tinea facial in the cases of T. mentagrphytes and Tinea corporis in the cases of T. verrucosum, but Tinea capitis in the cases of M. canis. Number of patients with zoophilic dermatophytes by site and age were as follows; Most patients with infected scalps were young people under 15 years old. Infection of the trunk area (neck,chest,back) and extremities (arms, legs, hands, feet) were relatively high in those patients over 15 years old. M. canis were most frequently isolated in autumn and winter, and T. mentagrophyts and T. verrucosum were mostly in spring and winter.

Out of 210 tinea capitis cases studies, 16 were negative when examined with KOH, among the remaining 194 cases, 123 were males (63.4%) and 71 were females (36.6%) and the age of incidence ranged between 7 and 15 years. Microsporum was the main causal agent being identified in 82 cases (42.3%) and was represented by 5 species among which M. canis was common in Egypt (55 cases, 28.4%). Trichophyton constituted 32% and was represented by 8 species among which T. violaceum was the most common (24.2% of total cases). Candida were isolated from 3.6% of total cases. The 47 species and twenty-five genera from nondermatophyte-cyclohexamide resistant fungi were recovered from the diseased skin tissue. Penicillium and Aspergillus were the most abundant followed by Scopulariopsis, Alternaria, Thermoascus, Chrysosporium and Cladosporium. Studies of the air-borne fungi in-door the hospital wards revealed the occurrence of 57 species belonging to 28 genera, among which Aspergillus flavus, Penicillium chrysogenum, p. corylophilum, A. niger, Tritirachium rosum and Alternaria alternata were the most common. Results of the out-door experiments were basically similar to those of the in-door experiments.

Objectives : The study is to report a case of acute lymphangitis with tinea pedis treated with pharmacopuncture(Bee venom, Soyeom) and Yeonkyopaedok-san. Methods : The mixed pharmacopuncture(Bee venom, Soyeom) was applied to the lesion area for 7 days, and Yeonkyopaedok-san was administered for 9 days for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. Results : After treatment, the symptoms of acute lymphangitis disappeared, and the treatment duration and effect were similar to those when antibiotics were used. Conclusions : Acute lymphangitis can be treated through herbal medicines with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects.

Superficial fungal infections with dermatophytes, nondermatophyte molds, or yeasts are treated primarily with topical and/or systemic antifungal agents. Additional or alternative treatment modalities, particularly energy-delivering modalities, however, are used widely to induce fungicidal effects via selective photothermal reactions. In addition to light- or laser-based devices, plasma therapy also has antifungal properties. This report describes a Korean male patient with mycologically confirmed tinea pedis that was treated effectively with two sessions of nitrogen plasma treatment at one-week intervals using a plasma delivering system. Nitrogen plasma was prepared by loading a 0.28-ml inert nitrogen gas/pulse that was activated by a microwave generator. The other treatment settings were a nozzle diameter of 5 mm, pulse energy of 0.75 J, pulse duration of 7 msec, and two passes. One week after the first session of nitrogen plasma treatment, the patient exhibited marked reductions in scale and inflammation. One month after the final treatment, no clinical features of recurrence were found, and successive potassium hydroxide testing revealed negative results.
