Atopic eczema is one of the most frequent dermatological diseases, with a still increasing incidence. Although its etiopathogenesis is still not completely understood, a variety of triggering factors are known. The following case report describes the clinical course of atopic dermatitis in a 2-year-old boy in whom both IgE-mediated allergic reactions and psychological factors were involved in triggering and maintenance of skin lesions. This demonstrates how important both dermatological therapy and close cooperation with the field of psychosomatic medicine can be.
