Paederus dermatitis is a linear, blistering contact dermatitis caused by pederin, a potent vesicant agent that is contained in insects belonging to the genus Paederus. This form of dermatitis usually occurs accidentally in those who have contact with this insect during the summer season. We report a peculiar case of a patient developing severe chemical burnlike lesions after application to her skin of many crushed Paederus fuscipes that she collected from the soil of a riverbank in the early spring for the treatment of her vitiligo.
隐翅虫皮炎是一种由隐翅虫素引起的线状、水疱性接触性皮炎,隐翅虫素是一种强效的致疱剂,存在于隐翅虫属的昆虫体内。这种皮炎形式通常在夏季与这种昆虫接触的人身上意外发生。我们报告了一例特殊病例,一名患者在早春从河岸土壤中收集了许多碾碎的褐足隐翅虫并涂抹在皮肤上以治疗白癜风后,出现了严重的类似化学烧伤的皮损。
