[Kaposi-Juliusberg's disease and atopic dermatitis, A clinical and immunopathologic approach (author's transl)].
Kaposi-Juliusberg's disease is a clinical and very severe complication of atopic dermatitis. Clinical patterns are different enough for the diagnosis of an herpes virus or pox virus infection and the prognosis has been very much improved by recent therapeutics. Three recent observations of pustulosis led the authors to study particular immunologic properties of these children, and to explain why only a few atopic patients are concerned with pustulosis. From these observations a prognosis might be established for the future because great atopic adults show the same immune features as young children with eczema herpeticum.
