Degos Disease We report a 7month-old girl with malignant atrophic papulosis (Degos disease) . Degos disease, or malignant atrophic papulosis, is a rare obstructive http://www.thedoctorsdoctor.com/diseases/degos_disease.htm
Extractions: Background This rare disease is important because a skin biopsy may be the first clue to the diagnosis. Patients classically develop multiple skin papules that evolve to have a dimpled appearance with a porcelain white center. This is the clue to the underlying disease which can affect the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system and may lead to death. The skin biopsy places the pathologist at the center of the diagnostic evaluation. OUTLINE Epidemiology Disease Associations Pathogenesis Laboratory/Radiologic/Other Diagnostic Testing ...

Extractions: Degos disease in a 24-year-old Jordanian male R.M. Al-Smadi, F. Abu-Jamous and I. Omeish Volume 6, Issue 1, 2000, Page 194-196 Introduction Degos disease (malignant atrophic papulosis) is a rare disease that affects skin and the gastrointestinal, ocular and central nervous systems. The disease is characterized by papules that develop porcelain-white centres and telangiectatic borders. The etiology of the disease is unknown; however, the immediate cause may lie in impaired endothelial function or abnormal coagulation (fibrinolytic activity). Viral causes have been implicated. Histopathological findings are wedge-shaped areas of dermal necrosis covered by markedly atrophic malpighian layers and collagen with a smudged appearance. Complications of the disease include peritonitis, intestinal perforation and, less frequently, cerebral infarction. There is no effective treatment; however, antiplatelet therapy may be beneficial for patients in whom platelet aggregation is impaired. Prognosis is poor when systemic involvement is found, but seems to be good in benign forms.

The combined clinical and laboratory findings were similar to those seen in systemic lupus erythematosus, sarcoidosis, or meningeal carcinomatosis. Thus, malignant

Extractions: Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, D.C. Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with characteristic skin manifestations. Although the disorder is rare, with a prevalence of one to 10 cases per million in adults and one to 3.2 cases per million in children, early recognition and treatment are important ways to decrease the morbidity of systemic complications. An association with other connective tissue disorders (overlap syndrome) and malignancy make this diagnosis particularly important to primary care physicians. Patient management includes careful evaluation for underlying malignancy and liberal use of physical therapy, antihistamines, sunscreen and oral corticosteroids. Poor prognostic indicators include poorly responsive disease, delay in diagnosis and the presence of malignancy. The therapeutic goal is to maintain function and prevent or minimize sequelae. (Am Fam Physician 2001;64:1565-72.) A patient information handout on dermatomyositis and polymyositis, written by the authors of this article, is provided on the
