A patient with delayed contact dermatitis to coral and she displayed superficial granuloma.
CONTACT WITH CORAL MAY CAUSE A RARE TYPE OF CONTACT DERMATITIS, AND THE RESULTING SKIN REACTION CAN BE DIVIDED INTO DIFFERENT REACTIONS: the acute, delayed and chronic types of coelenterate dermatitis. Granulomas of delayed skin reactions have rarely been reported. Herein, we report on a rare case of a delayed reaction of the skin to coral injury, and the patient displayed superficial granulomas and atypical CD30+ lymphocytes.
