A mobile laminar flow hood specifically devised for use in podiatry and a podiatric apparatus to which such hood is associated are described. The hood is adapted to generate a laminar flow of sterile air. In particular, an apparatus comprises a system for the generation and treatment of a laminar air flow in an intervention zone is described, together with means to support the system for the generation and treatment of a laminar air flow. The system has a blowing hood adapted to generate a laminar flow of sterile air towards the intervention zone, and a suction hood adapted to suck the laminar flow of sterile air from the intervention zone.
