The present study contains clinical, mycological and therapeutic details of 736 cases of Dermatophytosis. Maximum number of cases were of tinea corporis which formed 58.92% and this was followed by tinea cruris which formed 38.87% of the cases. The commonest age group affected was 20-29 years and the males outnumbered the females. Trichophyton rubrum was incriminated in 92.0% cases followed by T simii, T mentagrophytes and others. Oral griseofulvin gave the best results. An excellent improvement was observed in 77.4% cases who took griseofulvin as compared to 17.9% and 40.3% cases who applied Dermamycin and Bradex-vioform respectively.
