Panniculitis mimicking lupus erythematosus profundus: a new histopathologic finding in malignant atrophic papulosis (Degos disease).
[malignant atrophic papulosis]
We
present
the
case
of
a
57
-
year
-old
woman
with
a
1
-
year
history
of
a
cutaneous
eruption
clinically
and
histopathologically
characteristic
of
Degos
disease
.
In
one
of
the
two
cutaneous
biopsy
specimens
taken
from
the
trunk
lesions
,
the
histopathology
consisted
of
necrosis
and
sclerosis
of
the
subcutaneous
lobules
,
a
finding
that
to
our
knowledge
has
not
been
previously
described
in
the
cutaneous
lesions
of
Degos
disease
.
Two
months
after
cutaneous
biopsies
were
taken
,
the
patient
developed
ptosis
and
an
episode
of
acute
abdominal
pain
;
intestinal
perforation
and
many
characteristic
lesions
of
visceral
Degos
disease
involving
the
entire
small
bowel
were
noted
at
laparotomy
.
