AB The  terms  eczema  and  dermatitis  are  used  interchangeably,  denoting  a  polymorphic  inflammatory  reaction  pattern  involving  the  epidermis  and  dermis.  There  are  many  etiologies  and  a  wide  range  of  clinical  findings.  Acute  eczema/dermatitis  is  characterized  by  pruritus,  erythema,  and  vesiculation.  Chronic  eczema/dermatitis  is  characterized  by  pruritus,  xerosis,  lichenification,  hyperkeratosis/scaling,  and  ±  fissuring.
