ABSTRACT
Lead has been widely used in industry and contained in various household products. However, allergic reaction to lead is known to be extremely rare. A 23-year-old woman who had been working in an electronics company for 1 year presented with pruritic erythematous macules and papules on both arms and hands of 1 month duration. She was diagnosed as a contact dermatitis due to lead by patch test using lead nitrite(0.01% aq.). The cutaneous eruption subsided with treatment and has not recurred by changing the working place for 6 months. We report a case of contact dermatitis due to lead.
