Article Synopsis
- This review covers pityriasis versicolor (PV), a common fungal skin infection caused by the yeast Malassezia, which leads to scaly patches on the skin.
- Diagnosis of PV mainly relies on identifying its unique clinical features, with various diagnostic techniques discussed, such as microscopy and fluorescence dermatoscopy.
- Treatment primarily involves topical antifungal agents, and patient education on hygiene is crucial to prevent recurring infections, especially in humid conditions where PV is more prevalent.
