Popis: Abstract. Clinical structure of urticaria has been changed over last decade, due to discovery of an autoimmune form of the disease. This clinical form of chronic idiopathic urticaria comprises 30 to 52% of total. Incidence of physical urticaria varies from 17 to 20%, whereas other forms, including allergic urticaria, are diagnosed for < 5% of the patients. Different types of chronic urticaria exhibit their typical immunological features and clinical characteristics. A joint study of European Expert Group for Allergology, Clinical Immunology and Dermatology (EAACI/GA2LEN/EDF/UNEV) is going on. Appropriate recommendations are aimed for improvement of diagnosis and management of children with this disease.
