The problems of atopic eczema in children, new insights to pathogenesis and new genetical knowledge are discussed in the review.

The important role of allergy in atopic eczema, especially in children, present feasibility of diagnosis and complex treatment are closely

mentioned. Accented is interdisciplinary cooperation of pediatricians, dermatologists and allergists in management of patients.

Keywords: atopic eczema, allergy, diagnosis, therapy
