Nipple Involvement in Atopic Dermatitis: Report of 3 cases / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

The nipple involvement in atopic dermatitis is not mentioned in currently available major textbooks of dermatology. Recently, Hanifin and Rajka indicated that the nipple involvement is a specific indicator of atopic dermatitis though it is quite rare. The authors described 3 cases of atopic dermatitis with nipple involvement among 224 cases of atopic dermatitis seen over 2 year period at the Special Clinic for Atoipc Dermatitis. The nipple lesions responded to topical steroid quite satisfactorily.
