  • Title: Three cases of severe Rhus dermatitis in an English primary school.
    Author: Gach JE, Tucker W, Hill VA.
    Journal: J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol; 2006 Feb; 20(2):212-3. PubMed ID: 16441636.
    Abstract:
    We report three paediatric cases of severe allergic contact dermatitis caused by a Japanese lacquer tree (Rhus verniciflua), which is a rare specimen plant in the UK. The diagnosis of allergic contact dermatitis produced by plants that are not indigenous to a particular country is more likely to be delayed, as well as mistaken for cellulitis.
