All consecutive new patients seen at the skin clinic of the General Out-patient Department of the Federal Medical Centre, Bida from July 2006 to December 2007 were included in this prospective study. Participants were examined for superficial fungal lesions. Samples of skin scrapings for microbiological investigations were obtained from suspicious lesions. A total of 381 patients attended the Skin Clinic during the period of study. Superficial fungal infections constituted 89(23.4%) of all skin cases seen. The commonest clinical type of fungal infection was Tinea corporis, followed by Tinea unguium. Male to female ratio of clinical lesions was 1: 1.5. A total of 41 samples grew fungal organisms on...
