About
Trichophyton indotineae is a recently identified fungus species within the Trichophyton genus, known for causing dermatophytosis—a fungal infection of the skin. First emerging in South Asia over the past decade, T. indotineae has been associated with widespread outbreaks of severe, treatment-resistant, and frequently relapsing skin infections among otherwise healthy individuals.
