Multiple idiopathic mucocutaneous neuromas: a new entity?

We report a 53-year-old woman who presented with multiple painful red cutan eous papules that had been growing slowly for 13 years. Histopathology show ed typical features of neuroma. Biological, morphological and genetic inves tigations were negative and excluded the diagnosis of multiple endocrine ne oplasia type 2b. After reviewing the literature, we concluded that our pati ent has an extremely unusual acquired disease, which must be considered as a distinct entity in the spectrum of cutaneous neurological disorders.
