Zusammenfassung

Wir berichten von einer 39-jährigen Hausfrau und ihrer 4-jährigen Tochter, bei denen jeweils bullöse Hautveränderungen auftraten. Die Histologie zeigte die seltene Form einer bullösen Tinea corporis. Infektionsquelle war die an Microsporum canis erkrankte Hauskatze. Bei bullösen Hautveränderungen sollte daher eine Tinea corporis mitbedacht werden.

Abstract

We report on a 39-year old female patient and her 4-year old daughter with bullous lesions of the skin. Histology showed a bullous tinea corporis, probably caused by the proven microsporum canis-infection of their cat. Whenever especially patients with pets suffer from bullous skin lesions a tinea corporis bullosa should be considered.
