Table 1 Systemic mastocytosis criteria

From: Comprehensive mastocytosis data analysis from a single center

Major Criteriona

 -Multifocal dense mast cells in the bone marrow or other extra-skin organs

infiltration (presence of more than 15 mast cells in aggregates)

Minor Criteriaa

 -Abnormal mast cells in bone marrow or other extra-skin organs (>%25)

 -Presence of Asp-816-Val c-KIT mutation in extra skin organsb

 -CD2 and CD25 positivity in bone marrow mast cells

 -Serum tryptase level > 20 ng / mL (not applied in the presence of hematological clonal disease)

  1. aThe combination of 1 major and 1 minor criteria, or at least three minor criteria coexistence is sufficient for diagnosis
  2. bOther activating mutations at codon 816 are also valid
