“…In the presence of fungal infection this will usually resolve partially to reappear later and might spread to other sites. 30 Several other clinical presentations are reported in the literature. Erythroderma has been reported as a presentation for TI as a sole cause or in association with other cause for erythroderma.…”

Tinea incognito (TI), or incognita, are superficial fungal dermatophyte infections that are changed in shape, most frequently because of topical, systemic steroids use and other immunosuppressants. There are different clinical presentations depending on host factors and the species of dermatophyte causing the disorder. Diagnosis can be challenging and might need combined methods. Once diagnosed the treatment is the usual antifungals, either topical or systemic or combined depending on the site, extent, and host factors.

The diagnosis of eczema (‘dermatitis’) is mostly clinical and depends on the clinical history and exploratory objective findings (primary lesions, patterns). Contact dermatitis remains as an important condition in the group of eczematous disorders, with important socioeconomic and occupational relevance. Although irritant and allergic contact dermatitis have a different pathogenesis, both are characterized by a rather typical morphology, are triggered by external factors and tend to occur primarily in the area of contact with the exogenous agent. In addition, allergic and irritant dermatitis may also co‐exist. The importance of diagnosing contact dermatitis, especially when allergic in nature, is both due to the possibility of avoiding the trigger, and due to its role in aggravating other skin conditions. Nevertheless, the heterogeneity of clinical presentations in daily practice may pose an important challenge for the suspicion and correct diagnosis of contact dermatitis. Furthermore, other conditions, with different pathogenesis and treatment, may clinically simulate contact dermatitis. The Task Force aims to conduct a review of the unifying clinical features of contact dermatitis and characterize its main clinical phenotypes, and its simulators, in order to contribute to an early suspicion or recognition of contact dermatitis and enable a correct differential diagnosis.
