AbstractWe report three patients with inflammatory myopathy who presented clinically with weakness and wasting of only one limb. The myopathy progressed over 6 months and 5 years, respectively, in two patients and was stable after 8 years in the third patient. One patient had a skin rash.

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies
Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2012Inflammatory myopathies are chronic, immune-mediated diseases characterised by progressive proximal muscle weakness. They encompass a variety of syndromes with protean manifestations. The diagnosis is based on Bohan and Peter's classification criteria, which nowadays seem to be obsolete.

Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 2019Major advances have been made in the field of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), or myositis, that are likely to facilitate development of new therapeutic strategies that have not yet been applied in this group of diseases. These advances include new classification criteria to better identify the patients with IIM, detection of several new ...

The major inflammatory myopathies of adults-dermatomyositis, polymyositis and inclusion body myositis-are uncommon and can be difficult to distinguish from many conditions that mimic them clinically. They have a high morbidity; they are not infrequently the first sign of an associated malignancy; and they may be a part of another connective tissue ...

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies
Journal of Neuroimmunology, 2011The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) encompass a heterogeneous group of rare disorders that present with acute, subacute, or chronic muscle weakness. Besides overlapping clinical manifestations, polymyositis, dermatomyositis and autoimmune necrotizing myopathy may be associated with cancer or collagen vascular disease, and respond generally ...
