Atopic Dermatitis and Eczematous Disorders

by Donald Rudikoff, Steven R Cohen, Noah Scheinfeld

It is estimated that around 15% of the population suffer from atopic dermatitis or eczematous disorders at some point in their lifetime, causing a significant percentage of visits to dermatologists, primary care physicians, and allergists. Despite much current research interest, the pathophysiology of these disorders and their optimum treatment remain uncertain.

In Atopic Dermatitis and Eczematous Disorders, the authors discuss all clinical aspects and treatment of atopic dermatitis and other eczema variants, including:

• Seborrheic dermatitis
• Nummular eczema
• Stasis dermatitis
• Exfoliative erythroderma
• HIV-related dermatoses
• Ichthyosis vulgaris
• Hand dermatitis
• Immunodeficiency disorders

The book also discusses complications such as secondary infection and ophthalmic disease, as well as legal aspects. It contains almost 300 high-quality color clinical images, making it an invaluable visual reference for dermatologists in practice and training, candidates for post-registration qualifications, primary care practitioners, medical students, and allergists.
