Site map Search: Home Systemic Degos disease Degos disease, also known as malignant atrophic papulosis is a rare disorder. It generally occurs in young Caucasian adults. Degos disease affects the lining of the small blood vessels resulting in occlusion (blockage). The blood vessels affected include those supplying the skin, gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system. Degos scar Multiple lesions New lesions What is the cause of Degos disease? The underlying cause of the occlusion of the blood vessels in Degos disease is unknown. Three possible mechanisms are: Viral infection Disturbance in immunity Abnormality in the clotting system of blood What are its features? Skin lesions are the characteristic feature of Degos disease. The lesions are usually multiple and occur predominantly on the trunk and arms. They usually start as small red raised spots of 2-5mm in diameter. After a few days they enlarge and develop a central white spot that is depressed in comparison to the red skin around it. They heal leaving depressed porcelain-white scars. Gastrointestinal complications result from lack of blood supply to the lining of the gut and may lead to serious complications like perforation of the bowel. The usual symptoms are sudden onset of abdominal pain or gastrointestinal bleeding (vomiting blood or passing blood with the bowel motion).

Degos disease usually progresses through two stages. During the first stage, characteristic skin lesions appear that may last for a period of time ranging from weeks to years. The second stage of Degos disease is most frequently characterized by lesions in the small intestine, but other organs may also be affected. Major symptoms may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and/or weight loss. Intestinal lesions may break through the wall of the bowel (perforation), a potentially life-threatening complication. The exact cause of Degos disease is unknown. Resources Digestive Disease National Coalition 507 Capitol Court Suite 200 Washington, DC 20002
