Abstract

Atopic Dermatitis has long been a controversial entity in regard its relationship to food allergy. Indeed, inter-discipline disparity in the way dermatologists and allergologists perceive the food allergy/atopic dermatitis interplay, hampers the design of concise therapeutic strategies and conveys conflicting messages to the patients. Within this conceptual frame, food exclusion regimes are rendered a contentious option. On the basis of this acknowledgment, we opted to put the emphasis on the discrepant perceptions surrounding such therapeutic regimes and to share our view pertaining to their appropriate implementation.A Dermatite atópica é uma entidade que há tempos tem levantado controvérsias quanto à sua relação com a alergia alimentar. Com efeito, a disparidade interdisciplinar que existe na maneira em que dermatologistas e alergologistas percebem a interação entre alergia alimentar/dermatite atópica prejudica a elaboração de estratégias terapêuticas mais exatas e transmite mensagens conflitantes aos pacientes. Nessa estrutura conceitual, regimes de exclusão alimentar são considerados uma alternativa discutível. Com base nessa percepção, optamos por colocar ênfase nas percepções controvertidas ligadas a tais regimes terapêuticos e compartilhar nossa visão quanto à sua implementação adequada.
