[Various considerations on the lesions and treatment of Trichophyton verrucosum in calves. Preliminary report].

This paper is devoted to study the magnitude of the skin lesions produced by Trichophyton verrucosum--previously identified--as well as the therapeutic measures taken. For this study were used 45 calves with a skin fungal process identified, by the adequate culture means, as from T. verrucosum. Through the histic study of the skin biopsy were found several lesions due to tinea corporis dermatitis. The use of the drug employed is described. The cure rate obtained with this drug was the following: an 80% cure within 6 days, a 12,5% within 8 days, and a 7,5% within 10 days; no cure was observed in the controls--5 from the total number.
