title: Unilateral Nipple Eczema in Children: Report of Five Cases and Literature Review.
abstract: Bilateral nipple eczema on the background of atopy is not an uncommon problem and is a minor criterion in some diagnostic systems for atopic dermatitis (AD), but unilateral atopic nipple eczema is underrecognized and often causes clinical concern. We present the first case series of children with unilateral atopic nipple eczema and discuss the clinical aspects of this unusual distribution.
