ABSTRACT

Contact dermatitis usually presents as an eczematous appearance characterized by erythema, edema, vesicles, scales, crusts or lichenification. However, it can sometimes wear many masks, mimicking other skin disease due to its diverse clinical features. These atypical presentations are collectively called non-eczematous contact dermatitis. The most commonly observed forms include erythema multiforme-like, purpuric, lichenoid, lymphomatoid, pigmented, follicular, pustular, bullous, dyshydrosiform, and granulomatous contact dermatitis. Due to its atypical clinical manifestations, the diagnosis of noneczematous contact dermatitis may be challenging and is based on clinical contact history and possitive patch test reaction consistent with the observed clinical findings. In this section, atypical clinical manifestations of contact dermatitis are discussed.
