“…Aunque sus manifestaciones clínicas son variables, predominan las placas eritematosas lineales con pápulas, vesículas o ampollas sobre áreas expuestas, como los dedos, las manos, los antebrazos, la cara y el cuello (6), como ocurrió en este caso. También, se han descrito lesiones urticantes con edema de los párpados (6) y presentaciones atípicas de difícil diagnóstico, como erupciones que simulan eritema multiforme, herpes simple o liquen plano (7).…”

Primula obconica o “primavera de jardín” es una planta ornamental muy popular en los hogares y jardines de Colombia. Pertenece a la familia Primulaceae y es la principal causa de dermatitis alérgica de contacto inducida por plantas en Europa. Se presenta el caso de una mujer con vesículas y ampollas de distribución lineal en la cara, los antebrazos y las manos, quien posteriormente, durante una consulta de control, refirió el antecedente de contacto con plantas. La prueba de parche con la batería europea estándar extendida (HermalTrolab®) fue positiva y se demostró una sensibilización a primina al 0,01 %, con rápida desaparición de las lesiones después de suspender el contacto con la planta. Se resalta la importancia de la prueba de parche como herramienta diagnóstica para identificar los alérgenos relevantes en pacientes con sospecha clínica de dermatitis alérgica de contacto por plantas.

“…As a general rule, the eruption from color developers spares the oral mucosa [79]. Cases from paraphenylenediamine in hair dyes [80], P. obconica [81], nickel [82], epoxy resins [83], aminoglycoside antibiotics [84], and methacrylic acid esters for industrial use [85] have also been described. Oral mucosae involving forms are due to copper [86], zinc [87], and mercury [88] contained in dental restorations.…”

Clinical Contact Dermatitis

Irritant or allergic contact dermatitis usually presents as an eczematous process, clinically characterized by erythematoedematovesicous lesions with intense itching in the acute phase. Such manifestations become erythematous-scaly as the condition progresses to the subacute phase and papular-hyperkeratotic in the chronic phase. Not infrequently, however, contact dermatitis presents with noneczematous features. The reasons underlying this clinical polymorphism lie in the different noxae and contact modalities, as well as in the individual susceptibility and the various targeted cutaneous structures. The most represented forms of noneczematous contact dermatitis include the erythema multiforme-like, the purpuric, the lichenoid, and the pigmented kinds. These clinical entities must obviously be discerned from the corresponding "pure" dermatitis, which are not associated with contact with exogenous agents. Erythema Multiforme-Like Contact DermatitisOf all noneczematous clinical variants, the erythema multiforme-like (or "contact erythema multiforme") is the most common. It can be elicited by different substances, particularly exotic woods, medicaments, and ethylenediamine (Table 3). CausesWoods and plants. Among exotic woods, Brazilian rosewood (Dalbergia nigra), pao ferro (Machaerium scleroxylon), and Eucalyptus saligna are relevant as occupational causes of erythema multiforme-like eruption in carpenters, foresters, and
