<p>Tinea imbrikata merupakan dermatofitosis superfisial kronik yang sering kambuh, terutama mengenai individu di lingkungan primitif dan terisolasi. Penyakit ini disebabkan oleh dermatofita antropofilik, yaitu Tricophyton concentricum. Indonesia masih termasuk daerah endemis. Penularan melalui kontak erat dengan orang terinfeksi. Faktor predisposisi termasuk faktor kelembapan, keturunan, dan imunologi. Terapi terbaik menggunakan terbinafine dan griseofulvin oral dengan kombinasi keratolitik topikal. Terapi adekuat, eliminasi faktor predisposisi, dan sumber infeksi penting untuk mengurangi kekambuhan.</p><p>Tinea imbricata is a chronic and often recurrent superficial dermatophytosis, mainly affects individuals living in primitive and isolated environment.

Tinea imbricata is a chronic superficial mycosis caused by Trichophyton concentricum. It is characterized by widespread, annular, concentric, squamous lesions. Tinea imbricata is endemic in three geographical areas: Southwest Pacific, Southeast Asia, and Central and South America. Tinea imbricata in travelers returning from endemic areas is exceptionally rare. We report a case of tinea imbricata in an Italian child who acquired the infection during a trip to Solomon Islands. Three cultures were positive for T. concentricum. The patient was successfully treated with griseofulvin and terbinafine cream.
