An Overview on Atopic Dermatitis in Children

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic recurring inflammatory skin disease determined by genetic predisposition or hereditary atopic constitution. The condition first appears in early childhood and has a typical clinical picture with characteristic remissions and exacerbations. The variability of the clinical picture is related to the complex aetiopathogenesis of the disease and the patient’ s age, and is accompanied by moderate to strong itch. This review outlines recent standpoints on the aetiopathogenesis, diagnostics, treatment and prevention of AD.
