Overview
Biopsy of affected organ may be performed to detect possible accumulation of mast cells in an involved tissue.
Biopsy
The diagnosis of systemic mastocytosis is established by demonstrating mast cell infiltration in an involved tissue, particularly the bone marrow, using special staining techniques or flow cytometry.[1]
- Skin biopsy
- Bone marrow biopsy[2]
- Exclude hematologic non-mast cell lineage diseases
- Detect a possible accumulation of mast cells
- Detect possible morphologic/immunohistochemical/genetic pathological alterations of mast cells
