Abstract

We report on 888 patients with perioral dermatitis treated in our department from 1969-1975. The patients are evaluated according to age, sex and duration of treatment with fluorinated corticosteroids. The enormous increase of morbidity and the importance of highly effective topical corticosteroids are emphasized.
