Abstract:
Pediatric mastocytosis is a relatively rare disorder and most commonly occurs as isolated cutaneous lesions. Although autism spectrum disorders have been reported to be associated with mastocytosis, no clear association between mastocytosis and motor and intellectual delay has been reported with the exception of the case that detected de novo monoallelic mutations in the GNB1 gene. Herein, we describe the case of a Japanese male pediatric patient aged two years and six months who had cutaneous mastocytosis accompanied by motor and intellectual delay without the presence of GNB1 mutation.
