Abstract

Caterpillar dermatitis or lepidopterism (Lepidoptera = butterflies) is a toxic-irritant, or rarely allergic, reaction triggered by the release of histamine, thaumetopoein and other kinins from the hairs of butterflies and caterpillars. In Central Europe, the two main causes of caterpillar dermatitis are the oak and pine processionary caterpillar. In addition to cutaneous reactions, patients may develop conjunctivitis, bronchitis and even anaphylactic reactions. We describe the cutaneous aspects of caterpillar dermatitis based on two case reports.

摘要

毛虫皮炎或鳞翅目昆虫中毒（鳞翅目=蝴蝶）是一种由蝴蝶和毛虫毛发中释放的组胺、松毛虫毒素和其他激肽引发的毒性刺激反应，极少情况下为过敏反应。在中欧，毛虫皮炎的两个主要病因是栎列队蛾和松异舟蛾。除皮肤反应外，患者可能会出现结膜炎、支气管炎甚至过敏反应。我们基于两例病例报告描述毛虫皮炎的皮肤表现。
