Treatment of a Superficial Mycosis by Low-temperature Plasma: A Case Report

A case of dermatomycosis caused by zoophilic strain of Trichophyton interdigitale was treated by low-temperature plasma produced by direct current (DC) cometary discharge. The shortening of skin lesion persistence along with suppression of subjective discomfort and etiological agent was observed.
