Objectives. To study the clinical manifestations of atopic dermatitis in adolescents undergoing inpatient treatment and to substantiate the need to include physiotherapy methods in complex therapy. Material and Methods. We observed 242 adolescents (105 girls and 137 boys) aged 12–17 years, hospitalized in 2024 in the Dermatovenereology Department of the Saint Petersburg State Pediatric Medical University, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The diagnosis of atopic dermatitis was established based on clinical and anamnestic data, coding was performed according to ICD-10: L20.8 Other atopic dermatitis. The primary and secondary criteria for atopic dermatitis proposed by J. M. Hanifin and G. Rajka were taken into account when making the diagnosis. Comprehensive treatment of patients was carried out in accordance with the «Standard of Medical Care for Children with Atopic Dermatitis (Diagnosis and Treatment)» and «Clinical Guidelines. Atopic Dermatitis.» Results. The adolescents observed presented with widespread and diffuse forms of atopic dermatitis, including lichenoid, erythematosquamous with lichenification, and eczematized clinical patterns. Complicated pyoderma was observed in 55 % of cases, significantly complicating the underlying dermatological process. Concomitant pathologies were identified in two-thirds of patients, including gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary disorders (67 %), ENT pathologies, and respiratory diseases (28 % and 19 %, respectively). Physiotherapy methods used included photochromotherapy, laser therapy, ultratonotherapy, and phonophoresis, which demonstrated clinical efficacy based on the SCORAD index. All children who completed the full course of prescribed physiotherapy procedures in conjunction with the necessary dermatological treatment were discharged with improvement and in satisfactory condition. Conclusion. Based on the obtained results, it is recommended to include physiotherapy methods in the comprehensive treatment of children with atopic dermatitis at various stages, including in health resorts.
