A familial case of Degos disease
View through CrossRef
A 21-year-old woman presented with several atrophic papules on her trunk and limbs, accompanied by surrounding erythema. She had a 3-year history of unusual skin lesions and a maternal half-brother who died from malignant Degos disease. We discuss the familial case of Degos disease and highlight several important points of consideration for both physicians and wider multidisciplinary teams.
