Jason PY - 2021 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Poison ivy, oak, and sumac cause more cases of allergic contact dermatitis in the United States than all other allergens combined. At least 70% of the US population is sensitive to these Toxicodendron species. The allergen urushiol is responsible for Toxicodendron dermatitis, also known as rhus dermatitis. Urushiol is found in many other plants, including in the skin of mangos. Mangos are a common cause of plant dermatitis in subtropical and tropical areas, including Hawaii.
