[Neurodermatitis and psyche].
The clinical term "constitutional eczematoid" (synonyms: neurodermite, eczema flexuarum, atopic dermatitis e. g.) with/without bronchial asthma and/or allergic rhinitis is presented in its multifactorial dimensions from an overlooking point of view. There are different clinical types, the neurodermite --, the prurigo, the seborrheic and the mixed type of atopic dermatitis. The psychic way of behaviour of these patients which is the neurodermite structure of personality is presented thoroughly. This way of behaviour can especially be seen in patients of neurodermite and prurigo type of atopic dermatitis. In about 10% so called extreme case can be stated presenting this abnormal psychic way of behaviour. Wether in patients with atopic dermatitis a genetic caused psycho-dermatosis has to be discussed, cannot be answered, because there is no allround valid conception of ethology and pathogenesis for this multifactorial disease.
