초록
Head and neck dermatitis is a variant of atopic dermatitis often seen in young adults. Pityrosporum is a normal skin commensal. Thus, its importance as a pathogen of atopic dermatitis was neglected in the past. It was found, however, that the treatment of head and neck dermatitis with an antifungal agent results in clinical improvement. At present, although the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis has not yet been fully elucidated, Pityrosporum is considered one of the triggers of head and neck dermatitis. The case of an 18-year-old male who had a history of head and neck atopic dermatitis with erythematous xerotic patches accompanied by a yellowish colored crust and oozing on the facial area is reported herein. The lesion was treated with itraconazole monotherapy for four weeks, after which its condition improved.
