Paederus dermatitis is a pruritic, self-healing dermatitis, showing vesicle and squamose in ordinary cases. It is caused by rove beetles' Paederus hemolymph coming into contact with human skin. Paederus hemolymph contains the powerful pederin toxin. Paederus ilsae Bernhaurt and Paederus iliensis Coiffait are found in southern Iran and cause numerous cases of cutaneous lesions every year, chiefly in spring and summer. This is the first report describing the pathogen of Paederus in Iran. Dermatitis caused by these two species is the same except for duration and severity which are higher in P. ilsae. Clinical manifestations of the above mentioned species in human beings and Guinea pigs are different. Laboratory tests of pederin dissolved in ethanol is also part of the study. Complications arising from secondary infections, pederin stability and local treatment are also discussed.
隐翅虫皮炎是一种瘙痒性、可自愈的皮炎，通常表现为水疱和鳞屑。它是由隐翅虫的血淋巴接触人体皮肤引起的。隐翅虫血淋巴含有强大的隐翅虫毒素。在伊朗南部发现的伊氏隐翅虫和伊利隐翅虫每年导致大量皮肤损伤病例，主要发生在春季和夏季。这是第一份描述伊朗隐翅虫病原体的报告。这两个物种引起的皮炎除了病程和严重程度不同外（伊氏隐翅虫引起的病程和严重程度更高），其余相同。上述物种在人类和豚鼠身上的临床表现有所不同。溶解于乙醇的隐翅虫毒素的实验室检测也是该研究的一部分。还讨论了继发感染引起的并发症、隐翅虫毒素的稳定性和局部治疗。
