ICD-11 code : EA80;
Preferred Label : Atopic eczema;
ICD-11 definition : A chronic inflammatory genetically-determined eczematous dermatosis associated with
an atopic diathesis (elevated circulating IgE levels, Type I allergy, asthma and allergic
rhinitis). Filaggrin mutations resulting in impaired epidermal barrier function are
important in its pathogenesis. Atopic eczema is manifested by intense pruritus, exudation,
crusting, excoriation and lichenification. The face and non-flexural areas are often
involved in infants; involvement of the limb flexures may be seen at any age. Although
commonly limited in extent and duration, atopic eczema may be generalized and life-long.;
