[Skin and systemic disease caused by occupational contact with p-tert-butylphenol. Case reports].
Three patients who occupationally had been in contact with p-tert.-Butylphenol (ptB) developed vitiligo. Patch tests were negative to ptB. Antithyroid and antiparietal cell antibodies in all three patients indicate a possibly beginning systemic disorder such as already described in literature as the symptom triad of "vitiligo, hepatosplenomegalia and struma".
