Exponemos un caso de dermatitis alérgica de contacto causado por una pulsera hecha con madera de Cocobolo (Dalbergia retusa). Dicha madera seextrae de un árbol nativo de Centroamérica. El estudio epicutáneo realizado con alergenos específicos (obtusaquinona) confirmó la naturaleza alérgica de la reacción. Cada vez hay más publicaciones de dermatitis alérgica de contacto en personas que manipulan objetos de madera acabada fuera delambiente profesional. Al igual que en los casos ocupacionales, las maderas tropicales son frecuentemente las responsables de estos cuadros (AU)
We present a case of contact dermatitis due to a bracelet made in Cocobolo wood (Dalbergia retusa). This wood is obtained from a tree native of CentralAmerica. The epicutaneous study performed with specific allergens (obtusaquinone) confirmed the allergic nature of this reaction. There are moreand more reported cases about contact dermatitis in people who use finished wood objects outside of their work environment. As in occupationalcases, woods that have most often been described as responsible for these infrequent cases are those known as exotic woods from tropical trees (AU)
