ABSTRACT
We report the observation of a 24-year-old woman presenting a plaque-like lesion of the occipital scalp with hair rarefaction. This lesion was congenital and consisted of numerous, agminated, very small, trichilemmal cysts. It remained stable since birth, slowly growing in proportion with the patient during childhood. We discuss the nosological status of this intriguing lesion and its relationship with the recently described trichilemmal cyst nevus.

The authors report a case of allergic contact dermatitis in the alimentary industry due to contact with disinfectants containing glutaraldehyde and chloroxylenol. In our study, testing these allergens over fragments of different types of gloves, showed that only nitrile latex gloves conferred protection against chloroxylenol and a partial protection against glutaraldehyde. The authors stress the importance of testing these disinfectants in the alimentary industry where care about bacterial contamination needs to be taken care of
