2011年，位于日本南部的冲绳发现了一例由鸡小孢子菌引起的体癣病例。这名患者是一名96岁的日本男子，身体健康，从事斗鸡饲养员工作已有70多年。他的右前臂被其中一只公鸡咬了一口，几周后，右前臂上出现了两个红斑，并伴有轻微的瘙痒感。而该皮肤真菌的第一个分离物是由Miyasato等人从该地区发现的。2011年，它不是从患者拥有的同一只斗鸡那里获得的。然而，经常交换斗鸡和与斗鸡、交配和/或鸟会相关的特殊家养品种的鸡在粉丝和饲养者中很常见。我们在冲绳和东京郊区(千叶、东京、茨城和四冈县)调查了238只鸡和71只斗鸡。从东京都千叶县的一只斗鸡身上分离到的一株鸡分支杆菌具有不同的基因型，与基于核糖体RNA基因序列的内部转录间隔区1-5.8S-ITS2区(ITS1-5.8S-ITS2)的患者分离株有一个碱基差异。从日本大陆的一只斗鸡身上分离出鸡分支杆菌，这在我国动物身上是首次发现。
A case of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum gallinae was found in 2011 in Okinawa, located in the southern part of Japan. The patient was a 96-year-old, otherwise healthy, Japanese man, who had been working as a breeder of fighting cocks for more than 70 years. He was bitten on his right forearm by one of the cocks and a few weeks later, two erythematous macules appeared on the right forearm, accompanied by a slight itchy sensation. While the first isolate of this dermatophyte was recovered from the region by Miyasato et al. in 2011, it was not obtained from the same fighting cock owned by the patient. However, frequent exchanges of fighting cocks and special domestic breeds of chickens related to fighting, mating, and/or bird fairs are common among the fans and breeders. We investigated 238 chickens and 71 fighting cocks in Okinawa and in the suburbs of Tokyo (Chiba, Tokyo, Ibaraki, and Sizuoka). One isolate of M. gallinae from a fighting cock in Chiba Prefecture in the Tokyo metropolitan area exhibited a different genotype, with a single base difference from the patient isolate based on the internal transcribed spacer 1-5.8s-ITS2 regions (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of the ribosomal RNA gene sequence. The isolation of M. gallinae from a fighting cock on the mainland of Japan is the first such finding in animals in our country.
