Cutaneous mucinosis is a group of conditions involving an accumulation of mucin or glycosaminoglycan in the skin and its annexes. It is described in some connective tissue diseases but never in association with mixed connective tissue disease. This report concerns two cases of cutaneous mucinosis in patients with mixed connective tissue disease in remission; one patient presented the papular fo...

Cutaneous mucinosis affects primarily shar-pei dogs. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is considered to be the main component of mucin and CD44 is the major cell surface receptor of HA, necessary for its uptake and catabolism. The aims of this study were to identify the composition of the mucin in cutaneous mucinosis of shar-pei dogs, investigate the correlation between the deposition of HA and the expressi...

Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis is characterized by an eosinophil-rich inflammatory follicular and perifollicular infiltrate primarily centred at the level of the follicular isthmus and sebaceous duct. Follicular mucinosis has been observed in lesions of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis. Clinical and histological features of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis with follicular mucinosis and ...

F OLLICULAR MUCINOSIS is a histologic process whose hallmark is the accumulation of acid mucopolysaccharides within hair follicle epithelium.’ Follicular mucinosis has been reported in four clinical settings.”7 In the first group of cases, follicular mucinosis occurs as slightly raised and boggy plaques on the face and scalp, usually of children, adolescents, or young adults. A second group has...

Follicular mucinosis is characterized by mucin deposits within the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. It can occur as a primary idiopathic benign disorder; it can be found as an incidental phenomenom in rare cases of different dermatoses; or it can arise as a secondary symptom of a malignant disorder, most commonly mycosis fungoides. Youth and localization in a single area used to be regarded...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2015-209462 DESCRIPTION Localised lichen myxedematosus (LM) is a chronic idiopathic papular mucinosis that can be divided into five subtypes: a discrete papular (DPLM) form, acral persistent papular mucinosis (APPM), papular mucinosis of infancy, a nodular form and selfh...

Primary follicular mucinosis is a rare dermatosis characterized by the accumulation of mucin in the follicular epithelium and sebaceous glands. Clinically, it is characterized by the presence of papules or well-circumscribed and infiltrated plaques. In this paper, we report the case of a female patient, seven years old, evolving for three months with an asymptomatic, erythematous and infiltrate...

BACKGROUND Papular mucinosis is an idiopathic cutaneous mucinosis. It includes 3 clinicopathologic subsets according to the recent Rongioletti classification: a generalized papular form, a localized form, and atypical forms. The localized form is subdivided into 5 subtypes. The atypical form does not meet the criteria for either the generalized papular form or the localized forms and includes l...

Follicular mucinosis, also known as alopecia mucinosa, is a cutaneous mucinosis histologically characterized by accumulation of dermal type mucin in the pilosebaceous follicle and sebaceous glands. It presents in two forms, a primary or idiopathic form and a secondary form associated with various benign or malignant processes. Among the malignant processes, the main association is with mycosis ...
