| dc.description.abstract | Contact dermatitis is an inflammatory condition mediated by allergens and irritants, including food. There have been few reports of zucchini causing contact dermatitis outside of ingestion. We report a case of allergic contact dermatitis to zucchini secondary to sensitization by a past squash exposure. The patient was treated with both systemic and topical corticosteroids. | |
