BACKGROUND: In 2005, methylisothiazolinone (MI) was allowed as a stand-alone preservative in cosmetics. This resulted in an epidemic of allergic contact dermatitis to MI, mainly affecting women exposed to leave-on cosmetics. Consequently, a regulation of Annex V in the European Union in 2017 banned the use of MI in leave-on cosmetics and reduced the allowed concentration in rinse-off products. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the temporal trends in contact allergy to MI in Danish patients in relation to key events including European regulations over time. METHODS: A retrospective study of consecutive patients patch tested with methylisothiazolinone from 2005 to 2019. Demographics and clinical characteristics in terms of MOAHLFA (male, occupational, atopic dermatitis, hand dermatitis, leg dermatitis, facial dermatitis and age >40 years), sources of exposure, and clinical relevance were analyzed in relation to key historical events. RESULTS: Three hundred eighty of 12 494 patients (3.0%, 95CI: 2.7-3.4%) tested from 2005 to 2019 were sensitized to MI. An increasing trend in the prevalence of MI contact allergy from 2005 to 2019 (P < .01) was observed, although a decline in the absolute number of patch-test positive patients was seen from 2013 and onward. A reduction in leave-on cosmetics as a source of exposure was observed following the legislative ban in 2017, from 24.8% from in 2010 to 2013 to 6.2% in 2017 to 2019 (P < .01). CONCLUSION: The epidemic of MI contact allergy is declining in absolute terms, although the prevalence in the patch-tested population has not returned to its pre-epidemic levels. The legislative regulation of MI in 2017 has been effective in terms of leave-on cosmetics as a source of exposure in MI allergic patients. The process of post-marketing risk assessment of contact allergens in the European Union needs improvement.

BACKGROUND: Allergic contact dermatitis caused by leather is common, and several responsible allergens, such as tanning agents, glues, mercaptobenzothiazole derivatives, and dyes, but also antimicrobials and antifungals, are involved. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three female patients were referred to the Departments of Dermatology in a Belgian university hospital following skin reactions caused by leather products (shoes, belt, and car seats). They were patch tested with the European baseline series and samples of suspected leather products, and additionally with 2-(thiocyanomethylthio)benzothiazole (TCMTB), an antifungal agent previously reported to be a contact allergen in footwear. Chromatographic analyses of samples of all the leather materials tested were performed at the Department of Occupational and Environmental Dermatology in Malmö, Sweden. RESULTS: The patients reacting to the leather samples were shown to be sensitized to TCMTB, the presence of which could be confirmed by chemical analyses of samples obtained from the patients. CONCLUSION: Patch tests with TCMTB should be considered in patients with contact dermatitis caused by leather items.

BACKGROUND: Analyses of the European Surveillance System on Contact Allergies (ESSCA) database have focused primarily on the prevalence of contact allergies to the European baseline series, both overall and in subgroups of patients. However, affected body sites have hitherto not been addressed. OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of contact allergies for distinct body sites in patients with allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). METHODS: Analysis of data collected by the ESSCA (www.essca-dc.org) in consecutively patch tested patients, from 2009 to 2014, in eight European countries was performed. Cases were selected on the basis of the presence of minimally one positive patch test reaction to the baseline series, and a final diagnosis of ACD attributed to only one body site. RESULTS: Six thousand two hundred and fifty-five cases were analysed. The head and hand were the most common single sites that ACD was attributed to. Differences between countries were seen for several body sites. Nickel, fragrance mix I, cobalt and methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone were the most frequent allergens reported for various body sites. CONCLUSIONS: Distinct allergen patterns per body site were observed. However, contact allergies were probably not always relevant for the dermatitis that patients presented with. The possibility of linking positive patch test reactions to relevance, along with affected body sites, should be a useful addition to patch test documentation systems.

Mesotherapy is widely used for its lipolytic effect as an alternative procedure to surgical methods. Although many benefits of lipolytic mesotherapy have been observed, numerous side effects have also been reported. Here, we report a case of cutaneous foreign body granulomas that occurred after lipolytic mesotherapy.

BACKGROUND: The use of methylisothiazolinone (MI) in cosmetic products has caused an unprecedented epidemic of MI contact allergy. Current data concerning exposures at a European level are required. OBJECTIVES: To describe demographics and MI exposures for European patients with MI contact allergy. METHODS: Eleven European dermatology departments from eight European countries prospectively collected data between 1 May and 31 October 2015 among consecutive patients who had positive patch test reactions to MI (2000 ppm aq.). RESULTS: A total of 6.0% (205/3434; range 2.6-13.0%) of patients had positive patch test reactions to MI. Dermatitis most frequently affected the hands (43.4%), face (32.7%), arms (14.6%), and eyelids (11.7%); 12.7% had widespread dermatitis. For 72.7% (149/205), MI contact allergy was currently relevant mainly because of exposure to cosmetic products (83.2%; 124/149). Of these 124 patients, 19.5% were exposed to leave-on and rinse-off cosmetic products, 24.8% only to leave-on cosmetic products and 38.9% only to rinse-off cosmetic products containing MI or methylchloroisothiazolinone/MI. The majority of these (79%) noted onset of their dermatitis between 2013 and 2015. Fifteen patients (7.3%) had previously experienced allergic reactions when they were in newly painted rooms. CONCLUSION: Clinically relevant MI contact allergy remains prevalent across European countries, mainly because of exposure to rinse-off and leave-on cosmetic products.

UNLABELLED: Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is a rare autoimmune blistering disease. LABD is considered mostly idiopathic, butsome cases have been reported to be drug-induced, mainly associated with vancomycin (VCM).We present two cases of LABD possibly associated with VCM used for cardiac surgery prophylaxis; in the presented cases, the eruptions occurred only after VCM withdrawal, therefore leaving a question about the relationship between VCM and LABD in these cases.We reviewed previous reports of VCM-induced LABD and analyzed the following parameters: gender, age, recent medical history, concurrent medication, latency period, progression after withdrawal, time to resolution, treatment, and rechallenge. RESULTS: The causal relationship between VCM and LABD was often unclear; patients frequently had concurrent medication and symptoms frequently began and/or progressed after VCM withdrawal. Among the 46 reviewed patients in addition to our two cases (n=48), 20 (42%) had recent history of cardiac procedure, cardiac infection, congestive heart failure, or aortic aneurism. CONCLUSION: Further investigation is needed to ascertain the association between LABD, VCM, and heart disease.

Regorafenib is a second-generation multikinase inhibitor that is approved for the treatment of metastatic colon cancer and advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Hand-foot skin reaction, alopecia, and oral mucositis are well-established side effects of this medication. Herein, we discuss a 60-year-old woman who developed a lobular and septal granulomatous panniculitis after six months of therapy with regorafenib. Biopsy demonstrated focal lobular and septal granulomatous inflammation admixed with septal fibrosis and lobular lymphohistiocytic infiltrate associated with fat necrosis. To our knowledge, regorafenib-induced panniculitis has not been previously described. Increased awareness of this presentation can facilitate more timely diagnosis and treatment.
