Abstract

Background: Dermatophytosis is a fungal infection that affects keratinized tissues such as hair, skin, and nails. The disease remains common in tropical regions with high humidity, including Indonesia. Objective: This study aimed to determine the profile of patients with superficial dermatophytosis at Prof. Dr. Chairuddin Panusunan Lubis Universitas Sumatera Utara Hospital, during 2020–2024. Methods: This study employed a retrospective descriptive design. The study sample consisted of patients with superficial dermatophytosis treated at the Teaching Hospital of Prof. Dr. Chairuddin Panusunan Lubis, Universitas Sumatera Utara, Medan, Indonesia, from 2020 to 2024. Total sampling was applied. Results and Discussion: The prevalence of superficial dermatophytosis in Prof. Dr. Chairuddin Panusunan Lubis USU Hospital during 2020–2024  was 6.75% of all dermatology cases, with tinea corporis being the most common type (55.7%). The majority of patients were aged 18–59 years (54.8%), female (51.0%), unemployed (29.0%), and without comorbidities (81.0%). The most frequent clinical manifestation was erythema (71.4%), and diagnosis was most commonly established based on clinical presentation (64.3%). Ketoconazole was the most frequently prescribed treatment (82.9%). Most patients showed clinical improvement (79.0%), with a treatment duration of less than two weeks in most cases (68.6%). Conclusion: Superficial dermatophytosis predominantly affected adults and females, with tinea corporis as the most frequently identified type. Most patients responded well to therapy. The condition was more common among individuals with poor personal hygiene and those living in humid environments. Therefore, education on the importance of maintaining personal and environmental hygiene is necessary to prevent dermatophytosis.
