Abstract

A cutaneous mastocytoma excised from a 6-month-old male infant was found to have unusual massive eosinophilic infiltrates. The mast cells were identified with the aid of immunohistochemistry with antibodies to tryptase and KIT protein (CD117). Massive eosinophilic infiltration in a cutaneous tumor could be a diagnostic clue of an eosinophil-rich mastocytoma.
