Resumen

Las micosis superficiales son infecciones fúngicas que comprometen el estrato córneo, las estructuras anexiales o ambos, sin invadir más profundamente. Incluyen la pitiriasis versicolor, la dermatitis seborreica, la tinea nigra, la piedra blanca y la piedra negra. Producen lesiones clínicas variadas según el sitio afectado y el agente causal. Generalmente, producen poca o ninguna reacción inmunitaria; por lo tanto, su tratamiento usualmente incluye medidas y medicamentos tópicos, y solo en casos muy graves o resistentes, requieren fármacos sistémicos.
