Academy of Dermatology and Venereology 101 ORIGINAL ARTICLE JEADV (2000) 14, 101–105 Blackwell Science, Ltd Purpuric contact dermatitis in patients with allergic reaction to textile dyes and resins A Lazarov,1* M Cordoba2 1Dermatology Clinic and 2Department of Pathological Anatomy, Sapir Medical Center, Meir Hospital, 44281 Kfar Saba, Israel. *Corresponding author, tel. +972 3647 36 55; fax +972 3648 24 26; E-mail: lazarov1@netvision.net.il ABSTRACT Background Purpuric lesions have been described as an uncommon manifestation of allergic contact dermatitis in individual case reports. Objective We describe a series of patients who developed purpuric allergic contact dermatitis to textile dyes and resins in their personal clothing. Our purpose was to study the patients clinically and histopatholo- gically and to define the most frequent allergens, which cause purpuric allergic contact dermatitis. Methods One hundred and three patients were clinically evaluated and tested with the Textile Color & Finish Series (TCFS) (Chemotechnique Diagnostics) and Standard Series (TRUE Tests) because of suspected allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to clothing. The patients with clinical features of purpura as presenting sign of ACD were studied. Biopsies from the purpuric lesions were performed in three patients. Results Thirty of the 103 patients (29.1%) had positive reaction to an allergen from the TCFS. Clinically purpuric ACD was observed in 8.7% of all the cases studied (n = 9 of 103). Nine of the 30 patch-positive patients to the TCFS (30%) demonstrated purpuric macules, papules and patches. Patch testing of the nine patients with purpuric contact dermatitis, with the TCFS, resulted in 26 positive patch test results. The major causative allergens were the following: Disperse Blue 106 and Disperse Blue 124 in 26.9% each, Disperse Blue 85 in 11.5%, and ethyleneurea melamine formaldehyde in 7.7%. Positive patch tests were observed to dimethylol dihydroxyethyleneurea, dimethylol propyleneurea, tetramethylol acetylenediurea, urea formaldehyde, melamine formaldehyde, Disperse Red 17, and Basic Red 46 3.8% in each. Purpuric patch test reaction was observed in five cases. The patch test results had present relevance in all the cases. Lesional biopsies demonstrated acanthosis, spongiosis and parakeratosis. The blood vessels were dilated, without signs of vasculitis. The inflammatory infiltrate was composed of lymphocytes and erythrocytes. The extravasated erythrocytes had a perivascular and interstitial distribution in the superficial and deep plexus and were observed at the dermo–epidermal junction as well as in the epidermis. Conclusion Purpuric contact dermatitis is not an uncommon clinical form of ACD to textile dyes and resins. New allergens, which can evoke the development of purpuric allergic contact dermatitis and have not been described in the literature until now include: ethyleneurea melamineformaldehyde, dimethylol dihydrox- yethyleneurea, tetramethylol acetylenediurea, urea formaldehyde, melamine formaldehyde and Disperse Red 17. Key words: purpuric contact dermatitis, purpura, allergic contact dermatitis, clothing, textile dyes and resins Received: 15 July 1999, accepted 17 February 2000 Introduction Purpuric lesions have been described as an uncommon manifestation of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD).1 The aetio- logical agents that have provoked purpuric allergic contact dermatitis are listed in Table 1. We describe a series of patients who developed purpuric allergic contact dermatitis to textile dyes and resins in their apparel. Patients and methods During 1998, 103 patients were evaluated clinically and tested with the Textile Color & Finish Series (TCFS) JDV025.fm Page 101 Thursday, June 15, 2000 11:32 AM

The patch tests were applied to unaffected skin of the upper back, removed at 2 days, read at days 2, 3, and 7 and graded according to standard patch test definitions. The patients with clinical features of purpura as a presenting sign of ACD were studied. Biopsies from the purpuric lesions were performed in three patients and from the purpuric patch tests in five patients. Routine blood count and prothrombin time were also performed. The patients were not taking medica- tions affecting coagulation during the time of this study. Results Thirty of the 103 patients (29.1%) had positive reaction to an allergen from the Textile Color & Finish Series. Purpuric ACD was observed clinically in 8.7% of all the cases studied (n = 9 of 103 patients). Nine of the 30 patch-positive patients to the TCFS (30%) presented with clinical features of purpura namely: purpuric macules, papules and patches. Eight of the patients with purpuric ACD were females and one was male. None of the patients had atopic dermatitis, seasonal rhinitis or asthma.

Purpuric contact dermatitis
103 © 2000 European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology JEADV (2000) 14, 101–105 diagnosis was of 7.7 months. Disseminated purpuric lesions over the trunk and the extremities were present in five patients. In four cases the lower extremities were mainly affected. Clinically, the purpuric lesions comprised purpuric macules and patches in five patients (fig. 1), purpuric papules and nodules in two (fig. 2) and punctiform pigmented purpura on the lower extremities in two (fig. 3). In most of the cases the purpuric eruption was present along with other lesions, such as erythemato-squamous patches and hyperpig- mented plaques. One patient presented with erythrodermia sparing the face and the submammary area admixed with purpuric macules on the folds and lower extremities. In three patients the ACD was so severe as to require systemic steroid treatment. The garments provoking the purpuric ACD were personal clothing, mainly blue and black synthetic garments and stock- ings in six cases, red stretching trousers in one, dark personal clothing and blue bedspreads in two patients. Patch testing of the nine patients with purpuric contact der- matitis, with the TCFS, resulted in 26 positive patch test results. The causative allergens and their incidence are displayed in Table 2. The positive patch test results persisted until the day 7 reading in seven patients. Positive results from the standard series included allergic reaction to fragrance mix in two patients, and nickel sulphate, potassium dichromate, quaternium, black rubber mix, formaldehyde and colophony, respectively, in one patient each. Biopsies from the purpuric lesions were performed in three cases and the results are presented on Table 3. Acanthosis, spongiosis and dilatation of the blood vessels were observed in all the biopsies. There was no evidence of vasculitis in any of the specimen studied. The inflammatory infiltrate was com- posed mainly of lymphocytes (fig. 4), and in one case some eosinophils were seen. The extravasated erythrocytes had a perivascular and interstitial distribution in the superficial or superficial and deep plexuses (fig. 4). In one case erythrocytes were present at the dermoepidermal junction (fig. 5) and in another in the epidermis. Purpuric macules and papules were seen at the site of the positive patch tests in five cases. Punch biopsies from the purpuric patch tests demonstrated generalized or focal spongiosis in the epidemis, with or without acanthosis, dilated blood vessels, some oedema of the endothelial cells and different degree of Table 3 Histopathological findings in lesional biopsies from the purpuric allergic contact dermatitis Case 1 Punctiform purpura Case 2 Purpuric patches Case 3 Purpuric nodules Epidermis Acanthosis + 1 + 3 + 3 Parakeratosis 0 + 1 + 1 Exocytosis 0 + 2 + 3 Generalized spongiosis + 1 + 2 + 2 Focal spongiosis + 2 + 1 + 3 Erythrocytes in the epidermis + 1 0 0 Dermis Dilatation of blood vessels + 1 + 2 + 2 Edema of endothelial cells 0 + 1 + 1 Edema in the upper dermis 0 + 2 + 2 Vasculitis 0 0 0 Lymphocytic inflammatory infiltrate + 1 + 3 + 3 perivascular perivascular perivascular superficial plexus superficial and deep plexus superficial and deep plexus Perivascular erythrocytes + 1 + 1 + 3 superficial and deep plexus Interstitial erythrocytes in the dermis 0 + 3 + 2 Erythrocytes at the Dermo-epidermal junction 0 + 1 0 + 1 – mild; + 2 – moderate; + 3 – severe Table 2 Positive patch test reactions Positive results Allergen (n = 26) % Disperse Blue 106 7 26.9% Disperse Blue 124 7 26.9% Disperse Blue 85 3 11.5% Ethyleneurea melamine formaldehyde 2 7.7% Dimethylol dihydroxyethyleneurea 1 3.8% Dimethylol propyleneurea 1 3.8% Tetramethylol acetylenediurea 1 3.8% Urea formaldehyde 1 3.8% Melamine formaldehyde 1 3.8% Disperse Red 17 1 3.8% Basic Red 46 1 3.8% JDV025.fm Page 103 Thursday, June 15, 2000 11:32 AM

Signs of vasculitis were not observed in any of the biopsies. There was a striking resemblance in the histopathological find- ings between the lesional biopsies and those taken from the purpuric patch tests. The patch test results were relevant in all the cases. The skin eruption cleared on an average period of 45 days after stopping the contact with the incriminated textile. Most of the patients have stayed free of lesions for more than a year, wearing mainly light-coloured clothes. In two patients recidives were observed, when having been in contact with dark synthetic textiles. Discussion Several authors have reported purpuric contact dermatitis caused by clothing in the past.2,4,5,13–15 Textile dyes namely p-phenylenediamine,13 Disperse Blue 85,14 Disperse Yellow 2715, Basic Red 4616 and formaldehyde resins17,18 have been described as the cause of purpuric ACD in only individual case reports. In our series, purpuric macules, papules and plaques were observed in 8.7% of all the patients studied. Purpuric lesions along with other manifestations of ACD were seen in up to 30% of our patch-positive patients. This comparatively high frequency demonstrates that textile dyes and resins are cap- able of inducing purpuric ACD and purpuric patch tests. In our experience purpuric contact dermatitis was not an uncommon, but a rather frequent manifestation of ACD to azo dyes. This phenomenon could be due in part, to the climatic factors in Israel, characterized by very high tem- peratures and humidity lasting for 6–9 months per year. The hot and humid climate favours profuse sweating and thus enhances the exposure to the allergens and increases their penetration. Purpuric contact dermatitis (CD) may be of toxic19 or allergic origin.13–18 In all our patients the purpuric CD was a mani- festation of an allergic reaction to textile dyes and resins, as demonstrated by the positive patch tests, which persisted in the majority of the cases until the day 7 reading. Furthermore, the patch test was relevant in all of the patients. The correlation between the clinically observed purpuric lesions, and the development of purpuric patch test in some patients with purpuric contact dermatitis, suggests the involve- ment of allergic mechanisms rather than a toxic reaction as well. The histopathological findings in our cases, depicted marked similarity between the lesional biopsies and the pur- puric patch test biopsies. On one hand all the lesional biopsies displayed the features of acute eczema, with extravasated erythrocytes at different levels of the dermis and epidermis. On the other hand the purpuric patch test biopsies demon- strated the characteristics of an allergic patch test namely: focal or disseminated spongiosis in the epidermis, with forma- tion of spongiotic vesicles in some cases, mainly perivascular lymphocytic infiltrate in the superficial and deep plexuses, with the admixture of eosinophils, and extravasated erythro- cytes as described elsewhere.21 This histopathological correla- tion between the relevant patch test and the lesional biopsies also implies the involvement of an allergic reaction, rather than a toxic one. The extravasated erythrocytes in the lesional and patch test biopsies were observed mainly perivascularly but also interstitially in the dermis at the dermo–epidermal junction as well as the epidermis. Cytokines released by immunocompetent cells in the epidermis and dermis, during the allergic reaction, which have vasodilating effect, could be one of the triggering factors, leading to the extravasation of erythrocytes. Vasculitis was not observed in contrast to the findings of Bruynzeel,10 who described leukocytoclastic vasculitis in a fig. 4 Parakeratosis, acanthosis, spongiosis, exocytosis and dilated blood vessels surrounded by inflammatory infiltrate composed mainly of lym- phocytes and intermingled erythrocytes.

Purpuric contact dermatitis
105 © 2000 European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology JEADV (2000) 14, 101–105 purpuric vasculitic-like eruption ascribed to contact allergy to Balsam of Peru in an antirheumatic ointment. The most frequent allergens triggering the purpuric allergic reaction in our series were Disperse Blue 106, 124 and 85. These allergens are potent and are capable of inducing pur- puric ACD. Other allergens that can evoke the development of purpuric allergic contact dermatitis and have not been described in the literature until now include: ethyleneurea melamineformaldehyde, dimethylol dihydroxyethyleneurea, tetramethylol acetylenediurea, urea formaldehyde, melamine formaldehyde and Disperse Red 17.
