El Museo Olavide, desde su inauguración en 1882 hasta su desaparición en 1965, ha sufrido múltiples vicisitudes, algunas de ellas no contrastadas de forma oficial debido a la desaparición durante la Guerra Civil de la documentación existente en la Diputación de Madrid. El museo estaba localizado inicialmente en el Hospital de San Juan de Dios en Atocha. El hecho de que en este hospital predominasen las enfermedades venéreas hizo que muchas «noticias» que hoy tenemos sea a través de periódicos o revistas de la época, en muchos casos con cierto carácter sensacionalista. Con la recuperación de las figuras del museo en diciembre de 2005 encontramos abundante documentación que sirvió para que se pudiera identificar a los 3 escultores, Zofío, Barta y López Álvarez, así como historiales clínicos de las figuras. Con ello se pudo desmitificar leyendas existentes en torno al museo, a los escultores y a los enfermos, una de estas es la del «muchacho de la tiña favosa» (AU)
From the moment the Olavide Museum opened its doors in 1882 until its content was packed up around 1965 and lost sight of for a time, it underwent a succession of changes. Some of those changes cannot be fully documented now because the archives of the Provincial Council (Diputación) of Madrid were lost during the Spanish Civil War. The museum was initially housed in Hospital de San Juan de Dios, in the neighborhood of Atocha. Because this hospital treated mainly venereal diseases, much of the information we have about it comes from newspapers or magazines of the period, and their accounts were often sensationalistic. When a large number of the museums wax figures were rediscovered, along with a great many accompanying documents, in December 2005, the material allowed 3 sculptors -Zofío, Barta, and López Álvarez- to be identified. Case histories corresponding to the figures were also among the papers found. As a result, the truth about certain legends associated with the museum, the sculptors, and the patients could be unraveled. Among the patients whose stories were brought to light was one referred to as the boy with generalized tinea favosa, or crusted ringworm (AU)

Las aplicaciones de las diferentes resinas epoxi basadas en bisfenol A y F son extensas. Las resinas epoxi basadas en bisfenol F son más nuevas y resistentes que las de bisfenol A, y ambas son causa conocida de dermatitis de contacto alérgica. Se estudian 39 casos de sensibilización a resinas epoxi en los últimos 5 años. Los resultados obtenidos son: prevalencia de sensibilización a resinas epoxi entre los pacientes estudiados del 2%, 27 varones y 8 mujeres, con una edad media de 42.77, un período de medio sensibilización de 23,8 meses. La sensibilización a bisfenol F desde que se incluye para las pruebas del parche en la batería de resinas epoxi es del 100% para los casos sensibilizados a la resina. La localización mayoritaria se dio en las manos, con una relevancia actual del 84%. Se recomendó un cambio de puesto en el trabajo al 46% de estos pacientes. El aumento de la sensibilización encontrada a bisfenol F puede explicarse por una sensibilización concomitante con bisfenol A, una declaración incorrecta de la composición de la resina o una reactividad cruzada de ambos
The applications of epoxy resins based on bisphenol A and F are extensive. Epoxy resins based on bisphenol F are new and more resistant than epoxy resins based on bisphenol A. Both of them cause allergic contact dermatitis. In the last 5 years, we have studied 39 cases of sensitization to epoxy resin. The results of our study were these: the global prevalence of epoxy resin sensitization was 2%, 27 men and 8 women. The mean age was 42.77 years and the sensitization period was 23.8 months. The most frequent localization of the lesions were hands (84% of the patients). Since bisphenol F was included in epoxy resin battery for patch testing, a 100% of positives responses in patients sensitized to epoxy resin have been found. Sensitization to epoxy resins was a cause of change in workplace in 46% of cases in our series. There has been an increase in sensitization of bisphenol F that could be explained by a concomitant sensitization with bisphenol A, cross-reactivity between bisphenol A and F or because an incorrect chemical compound information of the resin

Los agentes de revelado fotográfico son derivados de la parafenilendiamina, que pueden actuar como irritantes y/o sensibilizantes cutáneos en trabajadores de procesos fotográficos, manifestándose las lesiones no sólo en forma de eczema de contacto, sino también como lesiones liquenoides. La incidencia de dermatosis profesionales por reveladores de color ha disminuido en los últimos años debido a la automatización de los procesos de revelado y a la aparición de la fotografía digital. Presentamos un caso de dermatitis de contacto liquenoide secundaria al revelador CD2 en un trabajador de laboratorio fotográfico automatizado que ocasionalmente reparaba las averías que se presentaban en la maquinaria. Las lesiones eran clínica e histológicamente liquenoides y las pruebas epicutáneas resultaron positivas a CD2. Nuestro caso presenta además la particularidad de la diseminación de las lesiones hacia zonas donde no era evidente el contacto con el líquido revelador
Colour developing agents, derivatives of paraphenylendiamine, can be both irritants and sensitizers in photographic processing workers. They cause allergic contact dermatitis and also lichenoid reactions. The incidence of occupational dermatosis from colour developers has decreased in the last years because of the automation in the developer processing and the emergence of digital photography. We present a case of lichenoid contact dermatitis in a mechanized photographic laboratory worker, who occasionally repaired machinery's damages. Lesions were clinical and histhopatological lichenoid and patch test were positives to CD2. Our case presents the singularity of the dissemination of the lesions to areas of the skin where it was not evident the contact with the colour developers agents

La sensibilidad al látex es un problema bien conocido, y en crecimiento, entre los trabajadores sanitarios. Recientemente, se han descrito problemas relacionados con la exposición al látex en trabajadores de la construcción. En estos casos, existía con anterioridad una dermatitis alérgica de contacto a los componentes de las gomas. Este hecho favorecía el desarrollo de una alergia al látex en estos pacientes. En este trabajo realizamos un estudio de los casos que presentaban sensibilización inmediata al látex y tardía a algún componente de la goma. De 236 pacientes que habían presentado sensibilidad tardía a componentes de las gomas, a 81 se les realizaron pruebas para averiguar la posible sensibilidad inmediata al látex, y se encontró en 17 casos. Se realiza un estudio de las características de estos casos (AU)
