Degos disease in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
[malignant atrophic papulosis]
Malignant
atrophic
papulosis
is
a
rare
disorder
characterized
by
pathognomonic
cutaneous
lesions
that
consist
of
infarctive
thrombosis
.
Visceral
involvement
often
occurs
;
the
gastrointestinal
tract
and
the
central
nervous
system
are
most
frequently
involved
.
Malignant
atrophic
papulosis
has
not
been
previously
described
in
an
AIDS
patient
.
We
describe
a
58
-
year
-old
homosexual
man
with
AIDS
who
developed
typical
cutaneous
lesions
of
malignant
atrophic
papulosis
.
No
visceral
involvement
has
been
detected
in
2
years
.
