mastocytosis/吐き気

A 21-year-old young girl presents with intense abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea in the context of a cutaneous eruption formed by erythematous and papulous elements with brown violet aspect, very pruriginous, occasioned by the preparation of some fishmeal. Similar eruption debuted from childhood from

Patients with mastocytosis have symptoms related to the tissue response to the release of mediators from mast cells (MC), local mast cell burden or associated non-mast cell hematological disorders. MC contain an array of biologically active mediators in their granules, which are preformed and

Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare disease with abnormal proliferation and infiltration of mast cells in the skin, bone marrow, and viscera including the mucosal surfaces of the digestive tract. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms occur in 14%-85% of patients with systemic mastocytosis. The GI symptoms

Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare, heterogeneous and progressive disease, characterized by the accumulation of atypical mast cells in various organs, including the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal symptoms are present in up to 80% of patients with SM, the most common being abdominal pain,

A 59-year-old male with a history of lifelong asthma, allergic rhinitis and hypercholesterolaemia presented to the emergency department for management of severe substernal chest pain with radiating pain to his left arm, nausea and diaphoresis. Physical examination was unrevealing and a cardiac

Mastocytosis is a rare process involving the activation and accumulation of clonal mast cells categorized by cutaneous or systemic involvement. Although the diagnosis of cutaneous disease can be straightforward and confirmed via skin biopsy, systemic disease mimics more common disease processes

Mastocytosis is a rare disease of mast-cell proliferation with involvement of the reticuloendothelial systems including skin, bone, gastrointestinal tract, liver, lungs, spleen, and lymph nodes. Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by a combination of symptoms that relate to the mast cells'

Mastocytosis is a rare and underdiagnosed disorder characterized by mast cell proliferation in the tissues and organs of the body. The gastrointestinal manifestations of the disease can be noted in approximately 70%-80% of those patients diagnosed with the disorder. Symptomatic manifestations of

We report a case of a patient with systemic mastocytosis who was treated with interferon-gamma. Because of severe diarrhoea, nausea and weight loss due to mast cell infiltration of the gastric mucosa the patient received 150 micrograms d-1 interferon-gamma subcutaneously for 10 months. During

Mastocytosis comprises several diseases characterized by an abnormal increase in tissue mast cells. Cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) is the most common form of mastocytosis, affects predominantly children, and presents as a mast cell hyperplasia limited to the skin. Systemic mastocytosis (SM) comprises

Systemic mastocytosis (SM), as opposed to cutaneous-only mastocytosis, implies the presence of neoplastic mast cell infiltration in extracutaneous tissue. Mast cell disease in adults is often systemic and often involves the bone marrow. Typical clinical and laboratory features of SM include

Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are present in up to 80% of patients with systemic mastocytosis (SM). GI symptoms include mainly abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. It is believed that most of the GI symptoms are due to the secondary effect of mast cell mediators on the GI tract. Direct

Mastocytosis is a spectrum of neoplastic, clonal cell disorders that are characterized by mast cell hyperplasia and accumulation. Disease and clinical presentation can vary depending on the extent of spread, ranging from skin-limited cutaneous mastocytosis to systemic mastocytosis that can mimic

Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) is a condition with signs and symptoms involving the skin, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurologic systems. It can be classified into primary, secondary, and idiopathic. Earlier proposed criteria for the diagnosis of MCAS included episodic
