Overview
Increased number of mastocytes in the skin and/or other tissues and organs is the typical feature of mastocytosis. In children, skin forms of mastocytosis prevail and, usually, heal without therapy. Systemic mastocytosis is rare in children. We discuss WHO classification of mastocytoses and screening protocol, which helps to establish the diagnosis and choose the appropriate therapy and follow-up of affected children.
Key words:
mastocytosis – etiopathogenesis – classification – examination protocol – therapy – differential diagnostics
