ABSTRACT
Atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis belong to the most common inflammatory dermatoses that we treat in everyday clinical practice. AD manifests in more than 70% of cases before the age of 5 years. Approximately one-third of psoriasis patients report on onset of disease in the first two decades of life. Here, we are going to review both disorders in the light of pediatric dermatology. We are going to discuss selected subtypes and present clues for further examination with respect to the differential diagnoses and comorbidities. The article provides insight into current therapeutic developments that are relevant for the treatment of children and adolescents.
