“…Many Degos' disease variants have been detailed, including benign cutaneous Degos' disease, familial Degos' disease, atrophie blanche with Degos-like features, systemic lupus erythematosus with Degoslike lesions, dermatomyositis with Degos-like lesions, and other connective tissue diseases with similar findings. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] The course, prognosis, and treatment in these cases has substantially varied.…”

“…Although there were some reports on the connection between antiphospholipid antibodies and Degos disease,12 our literature review reveals that most patients with Degos-like lesions in CTDs lacked antiphospholipid antibodies. With regards to systemic involvement, 2 out of 11 SLE patients with Degos-like lesions had major internal lupus, comprising renal and central nervous system involvement 13,15. In dermatomyositis, 3 patients had severe muscle involvement 5.…”

Degos disease is characterized by atrophic porcelain-white papules with peripheral erythema. Degos-like lesions have been reported in association with several connective tissue diseases (CTDs), mostly systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and rarely in dermatomyositis and systemic sclerosis. Herein, we report three cases of Degos-like lesions in CTDs. Two cases had Degos-like lesions linked to dermatomyositis. Both cases presented with severe inflammatory myopathy without pathognomonic cutaneous signs for dermatomyositis and lacked myositis-specific autoantibodies. Our third case, to our knowledge, is the first case of Degos-like lesions in association with overlapping systemic sclerosis and SLE without major organ involvement. The clinical presentation and histopathology findings of our cases support that Degos-like lesions may not be a specific entity but can be considered as a unique clinical pattern expressed in patients with CTDs.

“…Lesions may be numerous, especially on the trunk and upper arms [23]. Rarely, skin findings of systemic lupus erythematosus may resemble malignant atrophic papulosis [29,30].…”

Skin disorders are present in many patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit. They range in severity from being the reason for admission to being a nuisance during care. These cutaneous problems have been categorized into four groups: (1) serious skin diseases that may incur life-threatening complications; (2) subtle skin problems associated with systemic disorders that may be characterized by critical events; (3) prominent cutaneous manifestations that accompany lifethreatening systemic diseases; and (4) skin disorders that develop as complications during intensive care. Diseases in the first category were discussed in Part I of this article [1]. In Part II, we discuss diseases in the second category. The remaining disorders will be covered in Parts III and IV.
