Allergic contact dermatitis is a frequent disease in
the dermatological practice. Patch test is used to
make the diagnosis of this disease.
Objectives: To determine the epidemiological
characteristics and prevalence of allergens in
patients of the Hospital LC Lagomaggiore´s in
Mendoza.
Materials and methods: Transversal
observational descriptive study. Patients with a
history of chronic eczema were evaluated at
Dermatology Unit since March 2017 to June
2017. Patients were studied by applying
epicutaneous tests (Patch test) and using the
standard Latin
American allergen battery recommended by the
Argentinian Dermatology Society.
Results: A total of 21 patients were studied, 16
were women (76%) and 5 men (24%). Of the
total, 11 patients (52%) obtained a positive result
at least to one allergen. Nickel (21%, 7 patients)
was the most frequent allergen. The hands were
the most affected site (18%, 16 patients).
Conclusion: The patch test is a safe test and a
fundamental tool in the diagnosis of allergic
contact dermatitis. It allows to find the allergen
involved and thus avoid its exposure as a
fundamental part of the therapy. La dermatitis alérgica de contacto (DAC) es una enfermedad frecuente en la consulta dermatológica. Para su diagnóstico contamos con una herramienta muy útil como es el test del parche. Objetivos: Determinar características epidemiológicas de nuestra población y prevalencia de alérgenos en los pacientes atendidos en el Hospital LC Lagomaggiore de Mendoza a través del test del parche. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo observacional transversal. Se seleccionaron pacientes con antecedentes de eczema crónico evaluados en el Servicio de Dermatología desde marzo 2017 hasta junio 2017. Los mismos fueron estudiados mediante la aplicación de pruebas epicutáneas (test del parche) y utilizándose la batería estándar latinoamericana de alérgenos recomendada por el consenso de la Sociedad Argentina de Dermatología. LA-1000 Chemotechnique (Suecia). Resultados: Se estudiaron un total de 21 pacientes, 16 fueron mujeres (76%) y 5 varones (24%). Del total, 11 pacientes (52%) obtuvieron un resultado positivo al menos a un alérgeno. El níquel (21%, 7 pacientes) fue el alérgeno más frecuente. Las manos fueron el sitio con mayor afectación (18%, 16 pacientes). Conclusión: El test del parche es una prueba segura y una herramienta fundamental en el diagnóstico de la DAC. Permite hallar el o los alérgenos involucrados y así poder evitar la exposición a los mismos como parte fundamental de la terapéutica. |
