  • Title: Systemic mastocytosis with diffuse cutaneous involvement and haematological disease presenting in utero treated unsuccessfully with vincristine.
    Author: Angus J, Leach IH, Grant J, Ravenscroft JC.
    Journal: Clin Exp Dermatol; 2008 Jan; 33(1):36-9. PubMed ID: 17983456.
    Abstract:
    Mastocytosis is a disorder characterised by abnormal mast cell proliferation. The diverse spectrum of clinical presentations is dependent on the tissues and organs involved. We report a rare case of aggressive systemic mastocytosis presenting in utero with diffuse cutaneous involvement, and haematological abnormalities. There is little published evidence to guide treatment.
