Abstract

A case of erythema multiforme associated with an allergic contact dermatitis in response to an epoxy-based compound is presented. Patch tests revealed a positive reaction to both the epoxy resin and the hardener. Chemicals applied directly to the skin should be considered as a potential cause of erythema multiforme.
