- Abstract
The article describes a case of 67-year-old retired woman with allergic contact dermatitis caused by tosylamide formaldehyde resin in nail varnish. The woman was also presented with erythema, edema and scaling, with marked glabella and neck involvement. She used high end varnish label and showed that it contained tosylamide formaldehyde resin. The authors believe that resin should remain in the extended routine time series until it is withdrawn from commercial use.
