Description
1. INTRODUCTION Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, pruritic, chronically relapsing inflammatory skin disease that is often associated with other atopic manifestations such as bronchial asthma, allergic rhino-conjunctivitis and food allergies. The etiology of AD is unknown, but it is presumed to be multifactorial with interaction between genetic and environmental factors [1]. The skin disease is typically present in early childhood and may continue or recur later. It affects about two to three percent of the adult population [2]. There is geographical variation in the prevalence of eczema in adults both within and between countries and it has become more prevalent in recent decades [3]. The diagnosis of atopic dermatitis is usually based on several variables, including anamnestic and clinical findings. The criteria of Hanifin and Rajka [4] have been scientifically evaluated and can be applied successfully in the clinical situation. Important trigger factors are irritants, microbial agents, food, hormones and stressful life events [5].
