Atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease) in children and adolescents - a cross-sectional study and literature review. Atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease, Degosdisease) is a rare thrombo-obliterative microangiopathy of unknown pathogenesis. It usually affects people between the ages of 20 and 50. However, it can occur at any age. The condition is considered uncommon in children . Clinical characterization of pediatric patients with atrophic papulosis. Single-center prospective cohort study with data derived from the international DegosDisease Registry collected between 2000 and 2021. Among 96 registered patients with atrophic papulosis fulfilling the criteria, 19 were aged 0 to completed 17 years at the time of onset. The median age at the time of onset was 5 years, ranging from
A loss-of-function NCSTN mutation associated with familial Dowling Degosdisease and hidradenitis suppurativa. Dowling Degosdisease (DDD) is a rare autosomal dominant genodermatosis characterized by acquired, slowly progressive reticulated pigmented lesions primarily involving flexural skin areas. Mutations in KRT5, POGLUT-1 and POFUT-1 genes have been associated with DDD, and loss-of-function
Inflammation and thrombo-occlusive vessel signalling in benign atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease). Although the merely cutaneous, benign form of the extremely rare disease atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease) may occasionally develop into the systemic, malignant form with time, it is unclear whether it exhibits any systemic characteristics. To determine whether benign atrophic
Atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease) revisited: a cross-sectional study on 105 patients. Atrophic papulosis is a very rare vascular disease of unknown pathogenesis, mostly described by case reports. To assess demographic data and prognosis in patients with atrophic papulosis. A single-centre study was performed on a series of 105 patients with atrophic papulosis, diagnosed 2000-2021
Baricitinib in the Treatment of Kohlmeier-DegosDisease in Patients With Neurological Involvement Background: Kohlmeier-Degos (KD) is a rare disease that causes inflammation and blood clots, leading to blockages in small blood vessels. These blockages can result in K-D lesions throughout the body, affecting the skin, lungs, heart, spinal cord, and brain. KD can be fatal. No treatment exists the samples to NIH; 2 visits may be done via telehealth.... Study Description: This phase II study will provide off-label baricitinib treatment in patients with Kohlmeier Degosdisease (K-D) with neurologic involvement. We will perform a baseline research evaluation at the time of enrollment and follow each patient for 12 weeks of background therapy (defined as medications taken by the subject
Benign atrophic papulosis (Köhlmeier-Degosdisease): The wedge-shaped dermal necrosis can resolve with time. Atrophic papulosis is a rare thrombo-occlusive disease, characterized by the appearance of multiple atrophic porcelain-white skin papules, with a surrounding erythematous rim, which are histologically consisting of wedge-shaped necrosis of the dermis. It consists of two variants: (i
A phenotype combining hidradenitis suppurativa with Dowling-Degosdisease caused by a founder mutation in PSENEN. Dowling-Degosdisease (DDD), featuring reticulate pigmentation, and familial hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) share many clinical features including autosomal dominant inheritance, flexural location and follicular defects. The coexistence of the two disorders was recently found
Novel POFUT1 mutation associated with hidradenitis suppurativa-Dowling DegosDisease firm up a role for Notch signalling in the pathogenesis of this disorder: reply from authors.
Novel POFUT1 mutation associated with hidradenitis suppurativa-Dowling DegosDisease firm up a role for Notch signalling in the pathogenesis of this disorder.
Mutations in γ-secretase subunit–encoding PSENEN underlie Dowling-Degosdisease associated with acne inversa Dowling-Degosdisease (DDD) is an autosomal-dominant disorder of skin pigmentation associated with mutations in keratin 5 (KRT5), protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (POFUT1), or protein O-glucosyltransferase 1 (POGLUT1). Here, we have identified 6 heterozygous truncating mutations in PSENEN
A case of Degosdisease in pregnancy Degosdisease is characterized as a rare systemic vaso-occlusive disorder, although the exact pathophysiology is uncertain. Fewer than 200 patients have been reported in the literature, and only two reports describe the course of the disease during pregnancy. Here, we present the first reported case of the course of pregnancy in a woman with the systemic form of Degosdisease. The patient had been diagnosed with Degos prior to pregnancy and was monitored throughout the duration of the pregnancy. Her presentation and treatment are described. There was no further exacerbation secondary to the pregnancy itself; the pregnancy course was uncomplicated and the baby unaffected to date.
