Modern epidemiological features of zooanthropophilic dermatomycoses, mycoses of the feet and the hands, onychomycoses in Novosibirsk

The reporting forms No. 9 called “Information on the incidence of sexually transmitted infections and infectious skin diseases” of regional observation, approved by Russian Federal State Statistics Service were analyzed in order to study the modern features of the epidemiology of trichomycoses and foot mycoses in Novosibirsk during 2009–2018. There has been an increase in the primary incidence of mycoses of the feet and hands; trichophytoses and onychomycoses, as well as a decrease in this indicator among patients with microsporia in the reviewed period in Novosibirsk. The onychomycoses took the leading position in the structure of dermatomycoses, mycosis of the feet and hands was the second one, microsporia — the third one, trichophytosis — the last. The gender-age ratio of patients showed that women older 40 years suffered from onychomycoses more often, women older than 40 years had mycosis of the feet and hands, also female children aged from 0 to 14 years had microsporia, male children aged from 0 up to 14 years had trichophytosis.
