Late onset hyalinosis cutis et mucosae.
Two cases of non-familial, late onset (50 and 62-years-old) hyalinosis cutis et mucosae were studied and compared with classical early onset cases. Late onset cases showed essentially the same histological and ultrastructural features described for early onset cases. The late onset variety should be distinguished from other diseases; they resemble systemic amyloidosis and sometimes the adult form of colloid milium.
