6 of 80 haemodialysed patients developed a sub-acute eczematous dermatitis of the area surrounding the arteriovenous shunt in the forearm. Patch tests were positive to rubber chemicals: 6 patients reacted to the thiuram group, 4 of them also to carba compounds. Since the equipment contained only small pieces of rubber, the cause of the allergy remains obscure. It is possible that allergy was caused by short and intermittent contact of the skin with the rubber gloves used by the nursing personnel.
