We report two cases of tinea corporis bullosa. The first is a case of monolesional tinea localized to the right forearm in a 19-year-old woman. The patient complained of localized itching and the lesion resembled an insect bite reaction. The second case was a 29-year-old woman who showed approximately, 30 itchy bullous annular lesions on the limbs and buttocks. The lesions resembled a bullous pyoderma. Microsporum canis was isolated in both cases. The patients had no other skin lesions suggesting dermatophytoses and routine blood chemistry and immunology were normal. Tinea corporis bullosa is rarely reported and can mimic other skin diseases

Abstract

We report two cases of tinea corporis bullosa. The first is a case of monolesional tinea localized to the right forearm in a 19-year-old woman. The patient complained of localized itching and the lesion resembled an insect bite reaction. The second case was a 29-year-old woman who showed approximately, 30 itchy bullous annular lesions on the limbs and buttocks. The lesions resembled a bullous pyoderma. Microsporum canis was isolated in both cases. The patients had no other skin lesions suggesting dermatophytoses and routine blood chemistry and immunology were normal. Tinea corporis bullosa is rarely reported and can mimic other skin diseases
