Mastocytose cutanée maculopapuleuse métamérique

Herein, we report a case of cutaneous mastocytosis that is unusual in terms of its metameric disposition. There have been only two previous reports of segmental cutaneous mastocytis. The two pathological hypotheses involved precessional dermatitis that renders the skin surface susceptible to homing, and somatic mosaicism (type 1) with local mastocyte proliferation.
