Abstract
Photosensitive eczema associated with contact with bryozoans represents a typical nosological entity in its clinical forms, as much in terms of its localisation as of its seasonal rhythm. Its occupational origin no longer remains to be proved. It is a particularly disabling form of dermatosis, for which preventive measures remain, unfortunately, limited. The creation of new health care modalities for professional diseases among seafarers, together with a census of observed cases of dermatosis, should provide a precise indication of their incidence and their prevalence, for which very little data is currently available.
