Abstract/Text
Hyperkeratotic type tinea pedis is a refractory type of superficial dermatomycosis. Treatment for hyperkeratotic type tinea pedis is mainly with oral antimycotics, such as griseofulvin, and healing is generally considered to be difficult with only topical antimycotics. In this randomized comparative study, the usefulness of a topical application of 1% lanoconazole cream (Astat) monotherapy (group I) was compared with that of combination therapy with 1% lanoconazole cream and 10% urea ointment (Pastaron) (group II) in a series of patients with hyperkeratotic type tinea pedis. The clinical improvement rates (percentage of 'marked improvement' plus 'moderate improvement') was 70.0% in group I and 95.7% in group II. The fungal eradication rate was 5.0% in group I and 43.5% in group II after 4 weeks of treatment, and was 70.0% and 95.7% after 12 weeks of treatment, respectively. The usefulness rate (percentage of 'very useful' plus 'useful') was 70% in group I and 95.7% in group II. Both lanoconazole monotherapy and the combination therapy with 10% urea ointment were highly effective and safe. Both treatments should be recommended for patients with hyperkeratotic type tinea pedis for whom an oral treatment is not appropriate or for whom a sufficient improvement with oral medications cannot be expected.
