Phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of mastocytosis according to the age of onset. [PDF]
Adult's mastocytosis is usually associated with persistent systemic involvement and c-kit 816 mutation, while pediatrics disease is mostly limited to the skin and often resolves spontaneously.

Systemic mastocytosis in the elderly [PDF]
“Later onset” of systemic mastocytosis (SM) has been associated with a poorer prognosis. We examined clinical and laboratory findings, associated disorders, and survival in an older mastocytosis population. After receiving Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board approval, we identified 42 patients aged 70 years and older at the time of diagnosis of SM ...

Differential Diagnoses of Systemic Mastocytosis in Routinely Processed Bone Marrow Biopsy Specimens: A Review [PDF]
Diagnosis of systemic mastocytosis (SM) is mainly based on the morphological demonstration of compact mast cell infiltrates in various tissue sites. In almost all patients such infiltrates are detected in the bone marrow.
