“…The photoallergen may be transferred from one body site to another, for example, to the contralateral areas (8), or may be due to a cross‐leg effect or to transfer by the hands (ectopic dermatitis) (Le Coz, personal communication). A particular distribution of the lesions may occasionally be a connubial photoallergic contact dermatitis (26, 27).…”

“…Peculiar clinical features may sometimes occur, such as an erythema‐multiforme‐like eruption (Fig. 2) (11, 26, 34), leukomelanoderma (35), and a lichenoid photosensitive eruption (36) as may occur in Parthenium hysterophorus (already known as a possible cause of chronic actinic dermatitis and photocontact dermatitis). Urticarial reactions and purpuric lesions (particularly on the lower legs) due to ketoprofen have also been described (Le Coz, personal communication).…”

Many topical photoallergic culprits have been reported in the literature, the most important of which are sunscreen agents and, recently, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs). Not at all exceptional is the occurrence of photoaggravation and recurrent transient or even persistent light reactions on previously exposed as well as non-exposed areas (often sparing the original application site), particularly with the NSAID ketoprofen. Moreover, cross-reactions with chemically-related as well as non-chemically related molecules are common. The potentially misleading clinical features observed in some cases, the diversity of the casual substances identified, and the low frequency with which photopatch testing is carried out in general indicate that the occurrence of photoallergic contact dermatitis might well be underestimated.

“…5 In our patient no concomitant photoallergic contact dermatitis from sunscreens was present. Consort photo-allergic contact dermatitis from ketoprofen is rarely reported [6][7][8] and is possibly underdiagnosed. Our case shows that it can remain undetected for years unless it is specifically suspected and investigated.…”

“…[29][30][31] One study presented a unique case of dual sensitization in which an elderly married couple with rheumatic pain developed CACD to topical ketoprofen that they were applying to one another. 32 More than 14% of the cases of CACD related to the consort's occupation, including a wide variety of work settings. Contaminated work clothes represented an important indirect source of allergen exposure, particularly for family members who laundered them.…”

Consort allergic contact dermatitis (CACD) develops following exposure to an allergen originating from another individual. The diagnosis is often not straightforward. We conducted a systematic review to characterize patient demographics, clinical features, consort types, responsible products, and associated allergens in CACD. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and CINAHL Complete from inception to July 2020. In total, 183 articles describing 261 patients with CACD were included. Mean age was 40.9 years with female predominance (62.8%). The most common body sites involved were the face (48.6%), hand (30.4%), arm (20.9%), neck (17.8%), and genitals (11.5%). The most common consorts were partners/spouses (50.0%, of which 29.9% were related to sexual activity), children (19.4%), and healthcare providers (7.8%). Allergens were mainly encountered via direct contact with consorts (80.5% of cases). A caregiver relationship was involved in 27.6% of cases, and the consort's occupation in 14.6%. The most frequently implicated products were medications (35.6%), plants/botanicals (11.7%), and fragrances (8.7%). Patch testing identified 125 unique allergens in CACD. CACD can occur in relation to many individuals encountered throughout life. Caregivers may represent a high-risk group for developing CACD. Obtaining a holistic history encompassing social, sexual, and occupational factors can aid in the diagnosis.
