IMPORTANCE
Self-healing juvenile cutaneous mucinosis is a very rare, self-limiting disease characterized by the abrupt onset of asymptomatic papules and nodules located primarily on the face and periarticular regions of a juvenile patient. There have been less than 20 cases reported since it was first described in 1973.
OBSERVATIONS
Most cases have been reported in children 15 years and younger. Herein we present a case affecting a 17-year-old. To our knowledge, this the oldest reported patient with this condition in the USA.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE
Despite the rarity of this disease, it is important to keep SHJCM on the differential in pediatric patients presenting with proliferating papules and nodules. Knowledge of this entity may prevent unnecessary diagnostic testing and aggressive treatment in the pediatric population with this self-limited disease.
重要性
自愈性青少年皮肤黏蛋白病是一种非常罕见的自限性疾病，其特征为青少年患者主要在面部和关节周围区域突然出现无症状丘疹和结节。自1973年首次描述以来，报告的病例少于20例。
观察结果
大多数病例报告于15岁及以下儿童。在此，我们报告一例17岁患者。据我们所知，这是美国报道的患有此病的年龄最大的患者。
结论及意义
尽管这种疾病罕见，但对于出现增生性丘疹和结节的儿科患者，将自愈性青少年皮肤黏蛋白病纳入鉴别诊断很重要。了解这一疾病实体可避免对患有这种自限性疾病的儿科人群进行不必要的诊断检查和积极治疗。
