Quick Summary:

• Mastocytosis is a rare disorder that results from often abnormal and excessive numbers of mast cells in the skin and, rarely, in the organs. When the skin is affected, it is known as cutaneous mastocytosis; when the skin and other organs are affected, it is known as systemic mastocytosis
• Mast cells, which reside in the connective tissue, store chemicals important to initializing the inflammatory and allergic responses. Once activated, mast cells release chemicals including heparin, histamine, and serotonin that stimulate the body’s inflammatory response
• Mastocytoma of Skin is a form of cutaneous mastocytosis typically appearing as a single skin lesion that is red/yellow brown in color. The condition affects both children and adults but is predominantly self-limited and resolves over time. It is also known as Solitary Mastocytoma, and is the second-most common type of skin mastocytosis
• The tests to diagnose Mastocytoma of Skin include general physical examinations, blood tests, skin biopsies, and genetic testing to detect KIT gene mutations. An absence of systemic signs and symptoms is important in establishing a diagnosis of the condition
• Once the physical examination and any relevant tests are done, the reassuring diagnosis of Mastocytoma of Skin can be made. This makes the issue of systemic disease irrelevant. Very rarely, as children get older, they can develop maculopapular cutaneous mastocytosis
• Presently, there are no standard curative options for Solitary Mastocytosis. Generally, management of the symptoms and controlling the inflammatory response is needed, which may involve anti-histamine treatment
