Abstract
The primary purpose of this paper is to mention the presence and possible significance of bone lesions in patients with urticaria pigmentosa. Recently, Sagher et al (1) described a generalized cystic osteoporosis of the ribs with a thickening of the bony trabeculae in a patient with urticaria pigmentosa. After six months of investigation, no other cause for the described punched out bone lesions could be found. Accordingly, it was suggested that the bone changes could plausibly be due to mast cell infiltrations.
