Eccema de manos en niños. Estudio clínico-epidemiológico de la población remitida a un hospital terciario

Hand eczema is a common condition in children. The most common cause is atopic dermatitis, although cases of allergic contact dermatitis manifesting as hand eczema are not uncommon. Any child with eczema of hands in whom an allergic cause is suspected should be referred for patch- testing.
