Ultraviolet (UV) dyes are used as inks in garment printing. Hypersensitivity reactions to these compounds have been reported in the literature. The authors report a case of reaction to UV ink in a patient already on corticosteroid therapy. The patient's clinical course was reviewed along with images of wounds that subsequently developed. The affected areas were debrided and covered with Vaseline gauze and silver impregnated dressings. Epithelium was salvaged in many areas, and regrowth occurred over several weeks in regions of deeper injury. The concurrent use of steroids and the rapidity of the onset of symptoms were not characteristic of hypersensitivity dermatitis, which has previously been reported. The cause of the wounds was likely phototoxicity from radical subtypes in the ink that catalyze the reaction when exposed to UV light.
紫外线(UV)染料被用作服装印花的油墨。文献中已报道过对这些化合物的超敏反应。作者报告了一例已在接受皮质类固醇治疗的患者对UV油墨产生反应的病例。回顾了患者的临床病程以及随后出现的伤口图像。对受影响区域进行清创,并用凡士林纱布和含银敷料覆盖。许多区域的上皮得以挽救,在较深损伤区域数周内实现了再生。同时使用类固醇以及症状出现的快速性并不符合先前报道的过敏性皮炎的特征。伤口的原因可能是油墨中的自由基亚型在暴露于紫外线时催化反应而导致的光毒性。
