[Senile atopic dermatitis - current vision and unresolved issues.].

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most common dermatoses with a complex multifactorial pathogenesis including genetic predisposition, epidermal dysfunction, immune dysregulation, and disruption of the skin microbial landscape. The clinical picture of AD is characterized by age-related dynamics with changes in the morphology and localization of the skin rash; there are infantile, childhood, and adult stages of dermatosis. In recent years, the term «senile AD» has also been discussed for patients aged 60 and older.
