Slide2Irritant contact dermatitis
ICD
; is localized non immunological cutaneous inflammatory reaction , secondary to direct contact toxin effects e.g. acids & alkali or cumulative exposure to the irritant substance e.g. detergent ,solvents ,kerosene ,soap and water .
ICD
; account about 80% of all contact dermatitis ( 20% allergic contact dermatitis).
ICD
; can acute with erythema, oozing, vesiculation or even erosions in sever cases or chronic with dryness ,scale and painful fissure .
Examples of ICD are house wife dermatitis & napkin dermatitis.
ICD
; more common in persons with dry skin ,old people, industrial workers and atopic patients.
Ddx
: thermal burn ,ACD & Atopic dermatitis /treatment :primary avoidance of irritant.
Slide3Irritant contact dermatitis
house wife dermatitis
; usually affect both hand ,but sometimes only dominant hand affected , with chronic eczematous lesion on the palmer surface even painful fissures ,due to exposure to the detergent &excessive use of soap and water.
House wife dermatitis can affected planter surfaces of feet.
Complication ;
chronic irritation lead to loss of cuticle of the fingers nail which provide portal entry to the microorganisms e.g. bacteria cause acute paranochyia(painful) or fungi cause chronic paranochyia (painless).
Treatment: avoidance of irritation by regular use of hypoallergic gloves and emollient ,topical corticosteroids cream only for short time& treatment of infection.
Other namoculature mechanical hand or dirty hand
Slide4House wife dermatitis
Slide5DDx of hand eczema
Exogenous : irritant contact dermatitis & allergic contact dermatitis .
Endogenous : psoriasis, atopic dermatitis & others like dyshidrotic eczema.
Infection : tinea or superimposed bacterial infection e.g. S aureus.
How can differentiate between them ?
Slide6paranochyia
Slide7Irritant contact dermatitis
Napkin dermatitis
; common type of irritant dermatitis affect about 50% of infant , due to dampness ,irritation effect of urine and feces with prolong use of diaper (occlusion, mosturization and irritation).
C/F; red ,glazed erythema with erosions , even pseudoverrucous lesion in the diaper area well demarcated ,favor convex surface (skin folds are spared). why?
Complication; coexisting candidiasis is common .
DDx candidiasis, allergic CD, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis& atopic dermatitis.
Treatment: frequent change of diaper ,use of highly absorbable one ,regular use of barrier cream with each diaper change e.g. zinc oxide cream ,topical corticosteroids& topical antifungal creams (for candidiasis).
Slide8Allergic contact dermatitis
ACD : less common type of contact dermatitis ,account about 20% of CD ,is immunologically mediated cutaneous inflammatory reaction due to exposure to certain type of allergens.
ACD ; occurs at site of contact allergens and may extended to other site .
ACD: characterized by itchy erythema with acute vesiculation or
bullea
and oozing.
ACD : local and systemic type .
ACD ; its type 4hypersensitive reaction ,mediated by T lymphocytes.
ACD ; diagnosis by Patch test .
ACD; need sensitization before develop so occurs after 2-6 week from first exposure to the allergens.
Slide9Allergic contact dermatitis
Examples of ACD :
Ear lobe dermatitis ;nickel ( most common allergens)allergy due to earrings.
Cement dermatitis; potassium dichromate allergy.
Shoe dermatitis ; leather or rubber allergy .
Eyelid dermatitis ;nail varnish, local medication, cosmetics &air born
demerititis
Hair dye dermatitis ; paraphenelydiamine
PPD.
Phytophotodermatitis; plant dermatitis; e.g. poison of ivy, oak &sumac
Slide10Allergic contact dermatitis
Slide11Example of allergic contact dermatitis to the leather
Slide12Slide13ACD
EXAMPLE OF ACD IS
PHYTOPHOTODERMATITIS
Slide14Allergic contact dermatitis
Patch test
; is confirmatory not diagnostic test in ACD.
Its depend on immunological reaction to the applied allergens ( delayed type hypersensitive reaction T cell mediated reaction).
Technique ;fixing allergens to the patient's back using scanpor tape , then removal of tape after 48 -72
hr
, marking allergens upon removal of scanpor tape.
Grading :
+ :erythema &papule (weak).
++ : erythema ,papules & vesicles (strong)
+++ : spreading bullous reaction.
- : negative reaction.
Slide15Patch test
Slide16Allergic contact dermatitis
Treatment of allergic contact dermatitis
:
Avoid allergens .
Topical corticosteroid creams.
Systemic antihistamine to itching .
Treatment coexisting infections with topical and systemic antibiotic.
Sever cases and systemic ACD treat with short course of systemic steroids.

Slide18Radiation dermatitis
Radiation dermatitis
is a side effect of external beam ionizing radiation. It is also called radiodermatitis, x-ray dermatitis, radiation skin damage or a radiation burn. Most commonly, radiation-induced dermatitis is caused by radiotherapy for underlying malignancies
.
Acute and chronic type , localized to site of irradiation .
Burn, mild pink color with itching or pigmentation .
Treatment : mild cases aloe Vera cream ( emollients) after radiotherapy sections.
Course : mild cases heal within 2-4 weeks ,sever cases need months to heal
