Cutaneous mucinosis is a term that has been used to describe a group of diseases or conditions in which accumulation of mucin in the skin is a prominent feature. The cutaneous mucinoses includes myxedema (both diffuse and localized), lichen myxedematosus (papular mucinosis), lipoid proteinosis, follicular mucinosis, cutaneous focal mucinosis, cutaneous myxoid cyst, and others. All of these diseases share distinct histologic features. I examined a 16-month-old infant with a case of cutaneous mucinosis that had unique clinical and histologic features, unlike any of the known mucinoses.
皮肤黏蛋白沉积症是一个用于描述一组疾病或病症的术语，其中皮肤中黏蛋白的积聚是一个突出特征。皮肤黏蛋白沉积症包括黏液性水肿（弥漫性和局限性）、黏液性苔藓（丘疹性黏蛋白沉积症）、类脂蛋白沉积症、毛囊黏蛋白沉积症、皮肤局限性黏蛋白沉积症、皮肤黏液样囊肿等。所有这些疾病都具有独特的组织学特征。我检查了一名16个月大患有皮肤黏蛋白沉积症的婴儿，其具有独特的临床和组织学特征，与任何已知的黏蛋白沉积症都不同。
