An implant is composed of different metals, such as: nickel, chromium, cobalt, titanium, molybdenum and vanadium. Some metals may cause eczema like rash or scattered vesiculopapular dermatitis and urticaria. Allergies may result in loosing the implants, bone joints and orthopedic prosthesis. The preliminary research results carried out on the patients with eczema to the components of implants. The research was performed in Hospital in Inowroclaw and it is included in master thesis of a graduate from Technical University of Gdansk.
