Indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM) without skin lesions as a recurrent anaphylaxis: a case report study

Mastocytosis encompasses a diverse range of disorders characterized by the clonal accumulation of mast cells in various tissues, including the skin, bone marrow, and gastrointestinal tract.

This case report describes a 32-year-old male patient who presented with a history of recurrent anaphylactic attacks and elevated serum tryptase levels without apparent skin involvement. The diagnostic process and clinical implications of non-cutaneous mastocytosis are discussed in the context of existing WHO criteria.

Mastocytosis, although a rare disease, carries the potential for severe complications and can present with atypical symptoms, thereby complicating its diagnosis and management. Consequently, the development of a reliable diagnostic and therapeutic strategy is of paramount importance.

There is a pressing need to delve deeper into the investigation of the potential impacts and manifestations of mastocytosis to further our understanding and enhance patient care.
