In cutaneous mastocytosis, mast cells gather in the skin but aren't found in large numbers elsewhere in the body. Cutaneous mastocytosis mainly affects children, with three-quarters of cases occurring in children who are between one and four years of age. It's also known as paediatric mastocytosis. The most common symptom of cutaneous mastocytosis is abnormal growths (lesions) on the skin, such as bumps and spots, which can form on the body and can sometimes blister. http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Mastocytosis/Pages/Introduction.aspx RD |
