ABSTRACT
The tinea incognito is a dermatophytosis generally misdiagnosis because of modified clinical appearance by topical steroids, polyvalent creams and no steroid immunomodulators. The treatment consists in via oral allylaminas and azoles. We present an incognito tinea case by diflorasone topic use and presence of pedis tinea in the same patient.
