AB The  least  invasive  of  the  pathogenic  fungi  are  the  dermatophytes  and  other  superficial  fungi  that  are  adapted  to  the  keratinized  outer  layers  of  the  skin.  Subcutaneous  fungi  go  a  step  farther  by  extending  infection  to  the  tissue  beneath  the  skin  but  rarely  invading  deeper  structures  (Table  45–1).
