MAST CELLS - BIOLOGY
• Hematopoietic Cells - Leukocytes• Directly derive from CD34+ Progenitor Cells• Distributed in Connective Tissues• Express Stem Cell Factor (SCF) Receptor = Kit• Differentiate in the presence of SCF • Are extremely long-lived Cells (contrasting basophils)
• Express Vasoactive Mediators (Histamine, others)
• Release Mediators on Activation (IgER, Kit, ….)

Cutaneous Mastocytosis (CM) vsSystemic Mastocytosis (SM) !
Mostly Children (monoclonal?)
Diagnosis: Skin only- Biopsy of Skin- Serum Tryptase - Usually no BM Biopsy
Mostly Adults (c-kit D816V)
Diagnosis: MPD- Biopsy of BM (and Skin)- Apply SM Criteria- Define SM Variant

B-Findings (Borderline-Benign) andC-Findings (Consider Cytoreduction)
B-Findings:Infiltration grade (MC) in BM>30% and serum tryptase >200 ng/ml
Dysmyelopoiesis: Hypercellular marrow with signs of myelodysplasia or myelo-proliferation, but no criteria for MDS or MPD. Blood picture normal or slightly abnormal
Organomegaly (without impair-ment of organ function): Hepatomegaly (without ascites), splenomegaly (palpable), lymphadenopathy (>2 cm in CT or US)
When 2 or 3 B-Findings but no C-Findings are recorded, the final diagnosis is Smouldering SM
C-Findings:One or more Cytopenias:ANC<1000/µl; Hb<10 g/dl; Plt<100000/µl
Hepatopathy: Enlarged liver with ascites,
elevated liver enzymes +/- portal hypertension
Organopathy of Spleen: Splenomegaly
with hypersplenism
Malabsorbtion with hypalbuminemia and weight loss
Large osteolysis and/or severe osteoporosis & pathologic fractures

Two Distinct Entities: Mast Cell Leukemiaand Myelomastocytic Leukemia
Mast Cell Leukemia:- SM Criteria Fulfilled- c-kit Mutations (D816V) - Karyotype often normal- Atypical MC, MC-Blasts - ≥ 20 % MC in BM smears- Circulating Mast Cells
- No AHNMD no MDS/AML
- Usually, no CR after Induction Chemotherapy
Myelomastocytic Leukemia:- Criteria of SM not met- No c-kit Mutations- Complex Karyotype- Metachromatic Blasts- ≥ 10 % MC in BM Smears
or in Peripheral Blood
- AML or MDS-RAEB
- Usually, CR after Induction Chemotherapy

Mast Cell Leukemia (MCL)
Findings in MCL:
- SM Criteria Fulfilled- Organopathy - C-Finding(s) - Atypical MC + MC Blasts- ≥ 20 % MC in BM smears- No AHNMD- No Skin Lesions (!)
- Circulating MC:- ≥10% = Typical MCL- <10% = Aleukemic MCL
Bone marrow smear in MCL: Wright-Giemsa stain

Treatment of Patients with Mastocytosis
A: Treatment of Mediator-Related Symptoms:Drugs Targeting – Mediator Production
– Mediator Release– Mediator Effects

Treatment of Mastocytosis: Cytoreductive Drugs
ISM NO cytoreductive treatment (exception: severe osteopenia with risk of pathologic fracture, life threatening recurrent shock ?)
SSM Wait and watch in most cases. In select cases (with progression) consider IFNα, 2CdA, or targeted drugs
SM-AHNMD Treat AHNMD as if no SM is present, and SM as if no AHNMD had been diagnosed (e.g. ASM-AHNMD !)
ASM with slow progression
IFNα+glucocorticoids, 2CdA, in case of hypersplenism due to splenomegaly (MC infiltrates) consider splenectomy(in the absence of D816V - consider Imatinib)
ASM with rapid progression
Polychemotherapy ± 2CdA, IFNα, or glucocorticoids - in responding patients - consider stem cell transplantation (in the absence of D816V - consider Imatinib)
MCLPolychemotherapy or 2CdA (±IFNα or corticoids) - in responding patients - consider stem cell transplantation (in the absence of D816V, consider Imatinib)
In all categories, mediator-targeting drugs are given as adjunct to cytoreductive therapy
