摘要

Degos disease is a rare disorder characterized by systemic vasculitis involving various organs. There is no established, effective treatment for the disorder, and its prognosis is still poor. Combination therapy with corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide is considered effective for vasculitides involving the small arteries such as ANCA-associated vasculitis. We present here a 42-year-old man who developed Degos disease over several months, and was successfully treated using combined treatment with corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide.
