Abstract
Two female patients with stasis dermatitis developed allergic contact dermatitis to hydrocortisone 17-butyrate cream. Patch tests with hydrocortisone 17-butyrate were positive, but not with the vehicle. One patient was also allergic to two other commerical corticosteroids, but patch tests revealed positive reactions only to ingredients of the vehicles. Attention is drawn to the frequency of contact allergy to corticosteroids in patients with stasis dermatitis.Keywords
