description The diagnosis of cutaneous mastocytosis is based on the clinical finding of the pigmented macules or papules, positive Darier's sign and a dermal infiltrate composed of mast cells that can be better visualized by the use of special stains (Giemsa or Toluidine blue).

Dermatoscopic findings of pigment network-like structure combined with parallel pigmented lines and central reddish background in a adult patient with new appearing pigmented lesions should led us to searching for cutaneous mastocytosis.
