Allergic, irritative and photosensitive contact dermatitides make up a group of dermatoses which have traditionally been associated with some difficulties in diagnostication. The reason for this is the problems encountered in setting up, keeping in place, and reading the patch test which is the diagnostic tool relevant to veterinary practice. In the present study, a review of the disease complex is given, and a clinical study, dealing with allergic contact dermatitis, performed with materials and methods available to the small animal practitioner, is discussed with regards to symptomatology, diagnostic work, and therapy. With appropriate management, consisting in an attempt to eliminate the offending item(s), and glucocorticoid therapy adjusted to the clinical response, the disease carries a good prognosis.
变应性、刺激性和光敏性接触性皮炎构成了一组传统上在诊断方面存在一些困难的皮肤病。其原因在于进行、维持和解读斑贴试验（这是与兽医实践相关的诊断工具）时遇到的问题。在本研究中，对该疾病复合体进行了综述，并讨论了一项针对变应性接触性皮炎的临床研究，该研究采用了小动物从业者可用的材料和方法，涉及症状学、诊断工作和治疗。通过适当的管理，包括试图消除致病因素，以及根据临床反应调整糖皮质激素治疗，该疾病预后良好。
