Dermal mucin deposition and adnexal interface dermatitis were noted in 72% (n = 28) and 44% (n = 17) of biopsy specimens, respectively. Of 12 patients with eosinophils present in at least 1 biopsy specimen, 11 (92%) patients had a clinical history of pruritus of their skin lesions (P...

(threefold increase between 2010 and 2019). The underlying cause is not clear. However, recently improved biopsy techniques could improve the diagnosis of high-risk subtypes.
