Textbook of Contact Dermatitis

Abstract

The distinction between allergic and irritant contact dermatitis is usually made by patch testing. This test procedure is indicated in the investigation of long-standing cases of contact dermatitis and should also be used to exclude contact allergy as a complicating factor in stubborn cases of other eczematous diseases such as atopic dermatitis, stasis eczema, seborrhoeic dermatitis and vesicular hand eczema.
