Abstract
- Peanut allergy is common and potentially severe. This hypersensitivity reaction starts early in childhood and continues throughout life. Dietary elimination of peanuts is mandatory when atopic dermatitis is accompanied with peanut allergy. We experienced a case of a 9-year-old female atopic dermatitis patient showing positive CAP RAST and oral food challenge test with peanuts. Her skin lesions were cleared after dietary elimination of peanuts.
