Isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) has recently caused a number of cases of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) from its use in medical devices. We would like to enhance the awareness of this issue with the reporting of three Australian cases, involving two adults and a child. We also report a successful solution by using hydrocolloid wafer (Stomahesive®) as a barrier. As IBOA is not usually found on baseline patch test series and does not cross-react with other acrylic monomers, ACD to IBOA may be missed by clinicians.

In the current review, we present four ongoing allergy-focused registries initiated in Germany.
