Dermatomyositis is one of the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies. It is characterized clinically by progressive symmetrical proximal muscle weakness and a characteristic rash. There are patients with rash who have little or no muscle disease. Although the process primarily attacks the skin and the muscles, it is a systemic disease with frequent ...

Dermatomyositis is a disease that has a characteristic skin eruption that may occur with or without a proximal myopathy. The disease with cutaneous features only is classified as amyopathic dermatomyositis. The origin is unknown, but autoimmune factors are believed to play an important role.

Dermatomyositis (DM) is a systemic inflammatory disease involving skin, muscles and other organs. Immunologically mediated inflammation of small vessels leads to vascular damage, especially of the muscular tissue. Typically DM presents clinically with DM-type local or generalized rash and proximal muscular weakness. Laboratory signs of muscular damage (

Amyopathic dermatomyositis is a variant of dermatomyositis that is characterized by the typical skin rash but without the muscle abnormalities. It has been proposed that the amyopathic and myopathic forms of dermatomyositis exist on a continuum, a concept that is supported by family and genetic studies and the observation that a small proportion of ...

The clinical profile of 7 children and their follow-up is described. There was female preponderance with mate to female ratio of 1:6. The median age of onset was 6 years. All the patients had skin rash, muscle weakness and abnormal enzyme profile. Muscle biopsy was performed in 6 and was abnormal in all of them.

Juvenile dermatomyositis is a relatively rare, multisystem disease characterized by a nonsuppurative myositis which causes symmetrical weakness, rash and vasculitis; this last can affect the gastrointestinal tract and the myocardium. Late development of calcinosis is seen in approximately two thirds of patients.

AbstractBackground Hydroxyurea‐induced dermatomyositis is a rare adverse reaction of long‐term hydroxyurea therapy. It has been reported under different names; however, the exact classification and nomenclature of this eruption have been the subject of much debate, and a more precise term is still awaiting.

Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is a systemic, inflammatory, idiopathic disease, mainly affecting the skin and the muscles, starting before the age of 16, with an incidence around one case per 1 million children. Some patients display typical features of JDM without skin involvement, or even without muscle involvement; however, both tissues are affected

Dermatomyositis is a rare idiopathic inflammatory myopathy that affects adults and children, mostly female. Hallmarks of the disease are myositis with necrosis, regeneration and perifascicular atrophy accompanied by a typical skin rash with heliotrope erythema, Gottron's sign, Gottron's papules and nail fold changes with splinter hemorrhage.
