An epidemiological survey of @entity9202 and their causative fungus flora in Japan for 2011 was conducted in accordance with methods and criteria of the past four surveys. The survey covered a total number of 36,052 outpatients who visited 12 dermatological clinics throughout Japan. The results were as follows. 1   @entity4013 was the most prevalent cutaneous @entity364 (2,980 cases) seen in these clinics, followed by @entity7553 (378 cases) and then Malassezia infections (152 cases). 2   Among dermatophytoses, @entity14654 was the most frequent (1,930 cases : male, 980 ; female, 950), then in decreasing order, @entity4013 unguium (780 cases : male, 409 ; female, 371), @entity4013 (203 cases : male, 132 ; female, 71), @entity4013 (112 cases : male, 86 ; female, 26), @entity4013 manuum (43 cases : male, 25 ; female, 18), and @entity3100 including kerion (16 cases : male, 13 ; female, 3). 3   @entity14654 and @entity4013 unguium were seen to increase in the summer season and occur mostly among the aged population. Compared to the last survey, by clinical form, there was a marked decrease in @entity4013 @entity1 . 4   As the causative dermatophyte species, @entity12734 was the most frequently isolated at about 80 % among all dermatophyte infections excluding @entity3100 . @entity12736 was about 10 %. @entity14476 was isolated in five cases. @entity14955 was isolated in three cases, and @entity15528 was isolated in only one case. T. tonsurans was isolated in 13 cases. 5   @entity9281 was seen in 378 cases (305, male ; 537, female).
