Background: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, multifactorial, inflammatory and pruritic skin disease that occurs in early childhood, usually between 3 and 6 months of age. It is important to identify the relationship with the type of delivery, due to the prevalence of this disease and great compromise on the quality of life of these children. Furthermore, the relationship between atopic dermatitis and the type of delivery has not been well studied. Methods: Observational study, analytical type of cohorts, longitudinal and prospective. From the Adolfo Guevara Velasco Essalud hospital - Cusco, 2020-2021. The UK criteria were used to establish the diagnosis of atopic dermatitis. In addition, variables were measured: type of delivery, sex, birth weight, gestational age and Graffar's socioeconomic scale. The Relative Risk (RR) calculation was performed, obtaining crude RRs adjusted for statistically significant variables. Results: 312 infants under 4 months of age were studied, 156 born by caesarean section and 156 born by natural childbirth. 29.5% were diagnosed with atopic dermatitis in the studied population. In the statistical analysis, a positive association was determined between the type of delivery and atopic dermatitis. The risk of developing atopic dermatitis was significantly higher in infants delivered by caesarean section compared to infants delivered by natural childbirth in the crude model [RR (95% CI): 2.83 (1.88 - 4.26), p<0.05], and in the multivariate model, adjusted for: sex, Graffar's socioeconomic scale, gestational age and birth weight [RR (95% CI): 1.65 (1.08 - 2.51), p<0.05] continued to be significant. Conclusions: There is a relationship between the type of delivery and atopic dermatitis. A higher risk of developing atopic dermatitis was observed in infants born by caesarean section, adjusting for variables such as sex, Graffar scale, gestational age, and birth weight.
