Zoonotic Dermatitides

Sažetak
Zoonoses are those diseases and infections which are naturally transmitted between vertebrate animals and man. Viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, helminthes and arthropods can be transmitted directly or indirectly from animals to humans. A restricted number of agents are able to cause skin disease. The etiologic agent can be passively transmitted to the human host or can be actively inoculated in the skin with bites and scratches or arthropod bite. Although all humans are at risk for these skin diseases, some job categories are associated with greater exposure. Immunodeficient human patients are at particular risk of infection by zoonotic agents and, for them, the outcome can be easily fatal. Here we described the lesions caused by zoonotic agents able to induce dermatitis in humans.
