Evaluation of Mast Cell Activation Syndromes: Impact of Pathology and Immunohistology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mast cell activation syndromes (MCAS) are clinically defined disease states with a largely unknown morphological background. Since mastocytosis may be associated with MCAS, it is crucial in every patient to document or exclude mastocytosis by appropriate
