Abstract |
Two cases of skin lesions of the neck in violinists, in the angle under the left side of the jaw where the violin leans against the skin, are reported. One was a case of contact dermatitis due to the nickel part of the chin rest; in the other a cyst had formed in an area of lichenification and hyperplasia. Local lichenification on the left side of the neck is the chief symptom of the condition. Other skin manifestations appear in this area. |
