Degos & Re-Done
Degos disease, also known as Köhlmeier-Degos disease or malignant atrophic papulosis (MAP), is an extremely rare condition caused by blockage of arteries and veins. Individuals with this condition will develop papules. Those diagnosed with this disease may also develop complications due to impairment of internal organs. The exact underlying mechanism is still unknown, and an effective treatment is still being developed. There are fewer than 50 living patients presently known worldwide, and fewer than 200 reported in medical literature. However, it is important to note that many individuals may go undiagnosed due to rarity of the disease. Most individuals develop symptoms between the ages of 20-50; however, cases outside of this age range have been reported as well.
