✦ Synopsis


The main chymotryptic and tryptic proteinases of human skin were found in high-salt extracts of human dermis. The levels of these enzymes were markedly increased in salt extracts of human cutaneous mastocytosis as compared to the levels found in extracts of involved skin from the same patients, human cutaneous hemangiomas, and normal human skin. These data suggest that the chymotryptic and tryptic proteinases of human skin are primarily of mast-cell origin.

## SUMMARY This is a retrospective review of the case files and clinical photographs of 173 children diagnosed with cutaneous mastocytosis by a dermatologist in an exclusively paediatric practice. Of the 98 males and 75 females, 51% had mastocytomas, 47% had urticaria pigmentosa and three patients
