Atopic Dermatitis in Adults: A Diagnostic Challenge


Atopic dermatitis (AD) has a prevalence of 1%-3% in adults. Adult-onset AD has only been defined recently, and lack of familiarity with
this condition and confusion regarding the appropriate terminology persist. AD may first appear in childhood or de novo in adults and is
characterized by pronounced clinical heterogeneity. The disease often deviates from the classic pattern of flexural dermatitis, and there
are forms of presentation that are specific to adults, such as head-and-neck dermatitis, chronic eczema of the hands, multiple areas of
lichenification, or prurigo lesions
