TY - JOUR T1 - ALlergic contact dermatitis from tobacco smoke residues AU - Weary PE, Wood BT Y1 - 1969/06/09 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1969.03160100095022 JO - JAMA SP - 1905 EP - 1906 VL - 208 IS - 10 N2 - A young man was observed who had chronic eczematoid dermatitis of the dorsal and opposing surfaces of the index and middle fingers of both hands. Allergic contact dermatitis to some component of his cigarettes, which he held between these fingers, was suspected. Findings from patch tests showed he reacted to the tobacco smoke residues deposited on the filter and to crude coal tar. To our knowledge, no previous case of allergic contact dermatitis from tobacco smoke residues has been recorded.
