Abstrakt     Several cases of contact dermatitis from mehindi tattoos have already been reported in recent literature, in which the most frequent cause of sensitisation was para-phenylenediamine (PPD). In fact mixtures called with various names, for example "black henna", used to perform skin-drawings, possibly contain natural henna, a rare and weak sensitizer, and likely contain chemical colouring agents, such as PPD. Our case presented a highly positive patch test reaction to PPD as well as other positive reactions occurring close to the first one, in particular to disperse yellow 3, disperse red 1, balsam of Peru and benzocaine.
