The young age of the patient and the development of contact sensitization within a relatively short period were striking. The release of the sensitizer from black rubber and the skin penetration were possibly enhanced by continuous friction and the accompanying hyperhidrosis, suggesting that the black rubber bicycle handgrip was the primary source of sensitization.

Most individuals not allergic to PTDS will also test negative to other substances in the dye series. All 10 patients who tested positive to PPD and negative to PTDS who subsequently used a PTDS dye free of PPD tolerated these products. Many individuals allergic to PPD will benefit from the newer PTDS-based products.

Dermatitis. 2011 Jun;22(3):E7-9 Authors: Ozkaya E, Elinç-Aslan MS Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a distinctive drug eruption characterized by recurrent well-defined lesions in the same location each time the responsible drug is taken. Two different clinical forms have been described: the common classic pigmenting form and the rare nonpigmenting form. Nonpigmenting FDE is mainly characterized by symmetrical large erythematous plaques and the dermal histopathologic reaction pattern. Pseudoephedrine is known as the major inducer of nonpigmenting FDE. Pigmenting FDE from pseudoephedrine has not been reported previously. Here, the first case of pseudoephedrine-induced pigmenting FDE is reported, showing the characteristic fe...

Although Euxyl K 400 initially appeared to have low sensitizing potential, increased prevalence of contact allergy to Euxyl K 400 led to regulatory intervention. This review summarizes the history, epidemiology, and management of contact allergy to Euxyl K 400. Issues related to patch-test preparations are also discussed.

The first case of a dermatitis reaction over a stainless steel fracture plate was described in 1966. Most skin reactions are eczematous and allergic in nature, although urticarial, bullous, and vasculitic eruptions may occur. Also, more complex immune reactions may develop around the implants, resulting in pain, inflammation, and loosening. Nickel, cobalt, and chromium are the three most common metals that elicit both cutaneous and extracutaneous allergic reactions from chronic internal exposure. However, other metal ions as well as bone cement components can cause such hypersensitivity reactions. To complicate things, patients may al...

It has recently been identified as yet another fragrance contact allergen, with relatively high rates of sensitization. Majantol is not included in fragrance mix I or fragrance mix II, which are common patch-test screening chemicals for fragrance allergy. Moreover, because it is only a supplement to the North American series, there is a paucity of published data on the prevalence of contact allergy to this substance. Patch testing with Majantol could be useful in patients with suspected or proven contact allergy to fragrances; however, avoidance would be challenging, given that Majantol is unlikely to be list...

In the last 20 years, many concepts for educational interventions and a multitude of teaching aids have been developed by insurance associations and public institutions from different countries (eg, the United States, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, and Germany). For didactic purposes, terms of different levels of prevention have been inaugurated in northern Europe in the context of occupational dermatology.

The diagnosis of AD is not always easy in adults, especially when the extension of lesions is limited and their distribution atypical. The aim of this study was to investigate epidemiologic and clinical features of adult AD. The medical files of 332 consecutive AD patients were reviewed to ascertain family and personal history of atopy, age at onset, morphology and localization sites of AD lesions, serum total immunoglobulin E levels, skin prick-test and patch-test results.

Physician assessment of relevance at the time of final reading is not the ideal method for determining allergen relevance. This has implications for when best to determine the relevance of certain allergens. For allergens with lower agreement, in particular, extended follow-up is recommended to accurately determine an allergen's contribution to a patient's allergic contact dermatitis, especially in those circumstances in which a patient's condition has not improved.

Our purpose was to elucidate the clinical relevance of gold-induced airborne contact dermatitis. We analyzed and discussed the occupational dermatitis of two women working as restorers. Both patients' test results showed positive reactions to gold sodium thiosulfate only. The stop-and-relapse test confirmed the diagnostic hypothesis of airborne contact allergy. Our patients turned out to be gold sensitized because of occupational exposure to gold dust and gold leaf.

Group D1 corticosteroid esters produced a higher positive reaction rate (61.9%) than groups D2 (52.38%) and A (51.72%). This may be due to different prescribing habits or the easy access to D1 corticosteroids sold over the counter by pharmacies in Thailand.

Most reported cases of citrus peel allergy are due to d-limonene, which makes up the majority of the peel oil. However, our patient had an allergic reaction to geraniol, which is a minor component of the peel oil and is present in fragrance mix I. It is important to consider a contact sensitivity to citrus in patients who have positive reactions to fragrance mix I and II and who are occupationally exposed to citrus fruits. An initial positive reaction to fragrance mixes should prompt further testing to citrus in these individuals.

This process was followed by a generalized vesicular and pustular id reaction. The reactions resolved after 1 month of systemic corticosteroid therapy. Two months later, there was a relapse with bullae over the burn scar, accompanied by a pruritic oozing rash on the ears and face; the lesions were controlled again with systemic corticosteroid treatment. The clinicopathologic features suggest that the eosinophilic cellulitis with panniculitis and id reaction in the present case represents an unusual allergic reaction to aluminum.

When a patient has a positive patch test to a cosmetic product but to none of the common or commercially available allergens, it is important to further patch-test this patient to the ingredients of the product. Thorough testing with the breakdown of ingredients, usually obtained through cooperation with the manufacturer, often allows identification of the culprit allergen in the cosmetic product. In this article, we discuss emerging or rare allergens discovered by this method, including nail lacquer and lipstick allergens, copolymers, shellac, alkyl glucosides, glycols, protein derivatives, idebenone, and octocrylene.

A PubMed search was conducted to review the prevalence of vitamin E-induced ACD. It revealed 931 cases of vitamin E-induced ACD mainly from one large study. There were no reported deaths and only three patients required hospitalization for treatment. It appears that vitamin E-induced ACD is an uncommon phenomenon; incidence is low despite its widespread use in skin care products. Given its antioxidant and photoprotective properties, vitamin E shou...

It is in a class of chemicals known as formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. Notably, members of this class have been associated with allergic contact dermatitis, possibly due to the agents themselves, the formaldehyde they release, or both. Studies on SHMG in animals have demonstrated potential for sensitization and dermatitis, and formaldehyde-allergic patients have been reported to improve when products containing SHMG are avoided. Patients and providers need to be aware of this preservative. PMID: 20233550 [PubMed - in process...

They are an uncommon cause of allergic contact dermatitis. This case represents an example of occupational allergic contact dermatitis solely from thioureas in rubber products and no cross-reactivity with other rubber allergens. Standard patch tests may fail to detect thiourea-induced allergic contact dermatitis, so clinicians should consider thiourea sensitization in rubber allergy.

It is a common additive in many products, including moisturizing creams and ointments, lotions, cleansers, sunscreens, antiperspirants, and makeup products. Contact dermatitis from bisabolol has been reported in Europe and is purported to occur in the United States. Patch testing with bisabolol-containing products or bisabolol may be useful in the work-up of patients with presumptive allergic contact dermatitis or potentially worsening atopic dermatitis. Patients sensitized to bisabolol should be counseled to avoid any bisabolol-containing products.

Data regarding these medications continues to emerge, giving clinicians a greater understanding of their side effects profiles. The biologic agents used in dermatology, particularly the tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors, have a number of varied dermatologic side effects. In this two-part article, we perform a review of literature regarding cutaneous side effects of infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab, rituximab, efalizumab, and alefacept. In this second part, we discuss injection site reactions, infusion reactions, vasculitis, drug-induced lupus erythematosus, psoriasiform lesions, rebound phenomenon, eczema, atopic dermatitis, and hypersensitivity ...

To avoid this confounding occurrence, a waiting period between control of widespread dermatitis and initiation of patch testing is advised.
