Mastocytosis

Mastocytosis

Mastocytosis was regarded as a myeloproliferative disorder in the 2008 WHO Classification of myeloid malignancies.1 However, major advances in the understanding of the disease has led to it now being categorized as a separate disease entity in the 2016 update of the WHO classification.2 It is a heterogeneous disorder, characterized by clonal proliferation and accumulation of mast cells in one or more organ systems. The clinical course ranges from asymptomatic, sometimes spontaneously regressing disease with a normal life expectancy, to highly aggressive forms associated with multiorgan failure and short survival.1,3โ€“5 Mastocytosis is subdivided into different categories on the basis of extent and distribution of organ involvement, degree of impairment of organ function, and other clinical and laboratory findings.1โ€“9 The two main subtypes are systemic mastocytosis (20% of cases), and a more common, skin-limited form of the disease referred to as cutaneous mastocytosis (80% of cases). Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by involvement of bone marrow and/or other extracutaneous organs, although skin may also be involved in up to 50% of cases. Diagnosis of systemic mastocytosis requires fulfillment of at least one major and one minor, or three minor criteria (Table 29.6).
