Abstract

The authors report the case of a 54-year old woman presenting with right cardiac failure in whom the diagnosis of contemporaneous cutaneous-systemic mast cell disease was made. The cardiac symptoms regressed concomitantly with the vasomotor manifestations of the mast cell disease. Following a review of the principal mast cell mediators, the cardiovascular manifestations of the disease are studied and pathogenetic hypotheses are being put forward.
