Overview
Mast cell tumor must be differentiated from other diseases that cause flushing,such as: phaeochromocytoma and carcinoid syndrome.[1] Mast cell tumor must be differentiated from other diseases that cause elevated serum tryptase levels and cytopenia, such as: myelodysplastic syndrome, primary myelofibrosis, essential thrombocythemia, and chronic eosinophilic leukemia.
Differential Diagnosis
Mast cell tumor must be differentiated from other diseases that cause flushing:[1]
Mast cell tumor must be differentiated from other diseases that cause abdominal pain and discomfort:

- Myelodysplastic syndrome
- Primary myelofibrosis
- Essential thrombocythemia
- Chronic eosinophilic leukemia
- Chronic myeloid leukemia
- Myelomastocytic leukemia
