Degos disease in association with rheumatoid arthritis in a young boy.
J Pak Assoc Derma Jan ;19(1):52-6.

Degos disease (malignant atrophic papulosis) is an occlusive arteriopathy involving small-caliber vessels. Specifically, it is a progressive, small- and medium-size arterial occluding disease, leading to tissue infarction and initially involving the skin. The disease occurs both in a limited benign, cutaneous form and in a lethal multiorgan, systemic variant. We report an 11-year-old boy who has Degos` disease. We diagnosed him on the clinical and histological ground.
