    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Pseudoxanthomatous mastocytosis is a rare variant of cutaneous mastocytosis.
    • It is characterized by xanthoma-like lesions and can be associated with systemic involvement.

    Observation:

    • A 50-year-old Iranian man presented with a large upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage.
    • The patient was diagnosed with xanthelasmoidea, a form of pseudoxanthomatous mastocytosis.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights the potential for gastrointestinal bleeding in pseudoxanthomatous mastocytosis.
    • This presentation underscores the importance of considering systemic manifestations in rare dermatological conditions.

    Implications:

    • Early recognition and management of gastrointestinal bleeding are crucial in patients with pseudoxanthomatous mastocytosis.
