Abstract
Systemic Mastocytosis is a rare condition characterized by the abnormal proliferation of Mast Cells. Presentation as a solitary vertebral body lesion is extremely uncommon and may be confused with more ominous conditions such as metastasis. Familiarity with the condition can heighten clinical suspicion, direct tissue diagnosis, guide management and indicate appropriate follow up. We present a case of a 64-year-old woman undergoing staging for recently diagnosed breast cancer who was found to have Systemic Mastocytosis of a single vertebral body.
