Allergic contact dermatitis to Plectranthus amboinicus masquerading as chronic leg ulcer.

abstract：:Patch testing with chemical irritants almost always produces a striking variability in the intensity of reaction between individuals, even amongst normal, healthy subjects. Whilst there have been many attempts to define factors which predispose to heightened or, conversely, to diminished reactivity, the underlying cel...
