Abstract
We report a case of diffuse erythrodermic cutaneous mastocytosis with bone marrow infiltration. An 11-month-old female patient was referred to our hospital for intermittent flushing, fever, intense itching, ery thematous rash and bullous lesions. Cutaneous biopsy demonstrated diff use cutaneous mastocytosis. The bone marrow aspirate revealed mast cel l infiltration. Ketotifen treatment was very effective.
