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).

5. Degos Disease - Advice, Support And A Forum For Degos Patients, Their Families A Advice, support, news, and a forum for patients with Degos disease (malignant atrophic papulosis), their families and carers and medical advisers. http://www.degosdisease.com

Welcome to the Degos Patients Support Network website! This website has been devised by Judith Calder, a Degos patient in Sussex, England, with the full co-operation and support of Professor Christos Zouboulis, Vice Chair of the Department of Dermatology at Charite-Universitaetsmedizin Berlin. Working with data collected from patients around the world, Professor Zouboulis will be presenting the first ever World Conference on Degos disease in Berlin in 2004. All patients and their medical advisers are encouraged to attend this event, which will be the first of its kind ever to be arranged. No-one in the history of this disease has compared living patients before. If it's your first visit to the site, take a look at the About this Site pages and whatever your interest in this condition, there should be something for you to learn or to contribute. There is information and space for patients, their carers and relatives, their doctors and researchers. There are links to other sites giving information about Degos disease. Please use the Forum and add to the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) . If you have answers to questions, do feel free to add them in too.

(advertisement) Excerpt from Malignant Atrophic Papulosis Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: MAP, Kohlmeier-Degos syndrome, Degos disease, vascular occlusive disorders, thromboangiitis obliterans Please click here to view the full topic text: Malignant Atrophic Papulosis Background: Kohlmeier described a case of malignant atrophic papulosis (MAP) as a form of thromboangiitis obliterans in 1941. It was recognized as a distinct clinical entity by Degos in 1942, hence the name. Pathophysiology: MAP is a multisystem disorder involving the small-caliber blood vessels. The disease is characterized by narrowing and occlusion of the lumen by intimal proliferation and thrombosis, which leads to ischemia and infarction in the involved organ systems. MAP is different from other vasculitides in that inflammation is not a prominent component of the disease. MAP may involve the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts, central and peripheral nervous systems, skin, heart, lungs, eyes, pancreas, adrenals, and kidneys. The disease involves the skin alone in 37% of cases. The gastrointestinal tract is involved in about 50% of cases. Frequency: Internationally: This is a rare disease, with fewer than 150 cases reported. Most of the cases are sporadic, although members of the same family reportedly have been affected.

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.
