| Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with an immunologic background and occurs in patients with a personal or family history of atopy (i.e., asthma or allergic rhinitis).<ref name="MihmSoter1976">{{cite journal|last1=Mihm|first1=Martin C|last2=Soter|first2=Nicholas A|last3=Dvorak|first3=Harold F|last4=Austen|first4=K Frank|title=The Structure Of Normal Skin And The Morphology Of Atopic Eczema|journal=Journal of Investigative Dermatology|volume=67|issue=3|year=1976|pages=305–312|issn=0022202X|doi=10.1111/1523-1747.ep12514346}}</ref> It is caused by either skin barrier dysfunction or immune dysregulation of the adaptive and innate immune response leading to an enhanced IgE-mediated, systemic Th2 response.
