Indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM) is a type of mastocytosis characterized by the accumulation of mast cells in various tissues, including the skin, bone marrow, and internal organs, without significant organ dysfunction. Patients may experience symptoms such as skin rashes, flushing, gastrointestinal issues, and anaphylactic reactions, but these symptoms are generally mild and manageable. Unlike aggressive forms of mastocytosis, ISM typically has a better prognosis and patients often lead normal lives with appropriate treatment and management. Diagnosis is confirmed through a combination of clinical evaluation, skin biopsies, and blood tests to detect elevated levels of mast cell mediators.
