Inadvertent Eyelid Irritant Contact Dermatitis from Hypoallergenic Surgical Tape
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hypoallergenic surgical tapes are generally considered hypoallergic in nature as their commercial trademarks suggest. However, we report a case of a patient, after receiving therapeutic laparoscopy, developing symptoms and signs suggestive of not allergic but irritant contact dermatitis in the recovery room after an uneventful general anesthetic course. Hypoallergenic Micropore Surgical Tape (3M Health Care) had been applied to each of the patient’s eyelids for eye protection. The skin lesions had a strong relation to the use of cosmetic chemical peeling agents on the patient’s periorbital region. (Chang Gung Med J 2006;29(4 Suppl):25-8)
