Abstract
Topical steroid is one of the main armaments for dermatologists, but it can cause many unwanted side effects. Allergic contact dermatitis, even if it is rare, is one of them and would fall the physician in to confusion. So it is important to consider this problem in the case of dermatitis with no or poor response to appropriate topical steroid therapy. We herein report a case of allergic contact dermatitis caused by topical hydrocortisone cream.
