Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, complex, multifactorial skin disorder of infancy and childhood. Many affected children show positive SPT and IgE antibodies towards a large variety of foods and some aeroallergens. The relationship between AD and food allergy has been established by double blind placebo controlled food challenge tests and by significant improvement after appropriate elimination diet. Although it has been suggested for many years that inhalant allergens may induce AD only in the last decade the role of house dust mite in AD has been investigated.
