Abstract
Summary: A 39‐year‐old Thai man had eczema on the left groin accompanied by asymptomatic white nodules on the pubic hair for two weeks. Examination with the Wood's lamp, microscopic examination, culture and biochemical testing showed organisms compatible with Trichosporon beigelii. The diagnosis of “White Piedra” was made, and this is the first case of White Piedra to be reported in Thailand.Keywords
