Abstract
Among 98 patients with otitis externa 34 (35 %) gave positive response to patch tests. The most common finding was allergy to drugs, as a rule neomycin. On the basis of the study it is concluded that the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis is 12-22% among patients with otitis externa.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
