Description
Atopic eczema (atopic dermatitis) is the most common form of eczema, a condition that causes the skin to become itchy, red, dry and cracked.
Atopic eczema is more common in children, often developing before their first birthday.
However, it may also develop for the first time in adults.
It is usually a long-term (chronic) condition, although it can improve significantly, or even clear completely, in some children as they get older (NHS Choices). Part of the World Clinics: Dermatology series, this book is a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of atopic eczema. Beginning with an overview of the condition, the first chapters discuss etiopathogenesis, clinical features, investigations and diagnosis. The second part of the book covers both topical and systemic therapies, prevention strategies, and allergens, microbes and moisturisers. Presented as a collection of evidence-based reviews, each article is enhanced by photographs and figures, and concludes with a summary and comments by the editors highlighting their own clinical experience. Other titles in the World Clinics: Dermatology series include 'Acne', 'Psoriasis' and 'Fungal Infections of the Skin'.
