Abstract

We report a patient in whom polyacrylamide hydrogel injected into the nasal region caused palmoplantar pustulosis. We report this case because few cases of autoimmune syndrome induced by adjuvants caused by polyacrylamide have been reported.

Keywords: Polyacrylamide; autoimmune syndrome induced by adjuvants; polyacrylamide hydrogel.
