Extractions: (advertisement) Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: MAP, Kohlmeier-Degos syndrome, Degos disease, vascular occlusive disorders, thromboangiitis obliterans Background: Kohlmeier described a case of malignant atrophic papulosis (MAP) as a form of thromboangiitis obliterans in 1941. It was recognized as a distinct clinical entity by Degos in 1942, hence the name. Pathophysiology: MAP is a multisystem disorder involving the small-caliber blood vessels. The disease is characterized by narrowing and occlusion of the lumen by intimal proliferation and thrombosis, which leads to ischemia and infarction in the involved organ systems. MAP is different from other vasculitides in that inflammation is not a prominent component of the disease. MAP may involve the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts, central and peripheral nervous systems, skin, heart, lungs, eyes, pancreas, adrenals, and kidneys. The disease involves the skin alone in 37% of cases. The gastrointestinal tract is involved in about 50% of cases. Frequency:

I shall now analyze the abnormalities of the peripheral and central nervous system. The loss of ankle reflexes, decreased vibratory sensation in the feet, slowed motor- and sensory-nerve conduction velocities, and lack of sensory-nerve action potentials indicate a peripheral neuropathy. The involvement of both legs and arms and the sensory and reflex loss that was principally distal in the limbs suggest a diffuse peripheral polyneuropathy, although the severe proximal arm and leg weakness was atypical of that disorder. Some electrophysiologic abnormalities were asymmetric. Thigh pain and muscle tenderness were prominent. The disease may have involved the muscles directly as well, although muscle-enzyme levels were normal, or it may have affected multiple proximal-nerve portions in the arms and thighs, causing a severe mononeuritis multiplex with secondary paralysis of the proximal limb muscles. The drift of the left arm observed on the initial examination indicates asymmetric brain or nerve involvement. A CT scan showed a low-attenuation lesion in the right parieto-occipital region, and an MRI scan showed an additional small lesion in the right midbrain. Then ptosis of the right eye and a right internuclear ophthalmoplegia developed, indicating a focal lesion in the tegmentum of the right pons or the midbrain. Later, a left hemiplegia appeared and then improved, and a right extensor plantar response was found. Thus, at least four focal brain lesions developed quickly and resolved. The patient also had intermittent diffuse encephalopathy characterized by sleepiness, difficulty with concentration and attention, lethargy, and myoclonus, with diffuse slowing shown by an electroencephalographic study. The onset and course of the brain lesions and their locations are typical of transient ischemia and infarction, which were probably due to vascular disease.

Extractions: Diagnosis: Intracranial Hypertension due to Sigmoid Sinus Thrombosis CASE SUMMARY: The 6 year old boy described in this case, whose clinical symptoms included only headache without papilledema or focal neurological signs, had isolated intracranial hypertension documented by increased opening pressure at lumbar puncture. Substantial clinical improvement in symptoms was observed following the lumbar puncture, as is frequently observed in cases of intracranial hypertension. However, the age and gender of the patient are somewhat atypical in many series of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri), and the rapid onset of symptoms (over a few days) also raised a concern that the elevated CSF pressure might be secondary to an identifiable cause. MRI and MRV imaging showed evidence of thrombosis of the sigmoid sinus on one side, with normal drainage of the remaining venous system, and no evidence of venous infarction. No evidence of systemic vascular occlusions was evident on the history and general examination. DISCUSSION: The earliest description of cerebral vein and dural sinus thrombosis is attributed to Ribes in 1825. The true incidence of this disorder is unknown, as many cases are asymptomatic or difficult to distinguish from benign symptoms. However, evidence of cerebral vein or sinus thrombosis was documented in 9 percent of 182 consecutive autopsies, with a 2:1 female preponderance. Furthermore, sinovenous thrombosis was diagnosed in 3.75 percent of a pediatric population undergoing angiography. These data suggest that the

Extractions: A patient with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is described in association with Dowling Degos disease and perianal squamous cell carcinomas. As the initial treatment for HS failed to give any satisfactory relief he sought no further medical help for the subsequent 40 years. This Top of Abstract patient illustrates the management difficulties in HS and the need for regular surveillance to exclude the development of anogenital squamous cell carcinoma. Previous reports of hidradenitis suppurativa in association with Dowling Degos disease are reviewed and the aetiology is discussed.
