Juvenile Dermatomyositis

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1991
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.

Angiokeratomas in Juvenile Dermatomyositis

Pediatric Dermatology, 1999
Abstract: Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is an uncommon disease that features muscle weakness, a characteristic rash, and vascular changes in skin, muscle, and other organs. We report a patient with JDM who developed multiple angiokeratomas, one of which was calcified.

Juvenile amyopathic dermatomyositis

British Journal of Dermatology, 1997
We report a 15-year-old girl with a 10-year-old history of typical skin features of dermatomyositis (DM) without evidence of muscle involvement. Amyopathic dermatomyositis (ADM) is defined by the presence of biopsy confirmed classic cutaneous findings of dermatomyositis in the absence of any clinical or laboratory signs of muscle disease for at least 2

Calcinosis in juvenile dermatomyositis

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2010
A 61-year-old Caucasian man presented with widespread soft tissue calcinosis. Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) had been diagnosed at the age of 12 years, and was treated at the time with high dose corticosteroid. His myositis had been in remission since the age of 16 years, with no new muscle weakness and a normal creatine kinase concentration.

Juvenile Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis

Clinics in Rheumatic Diseases, 1984
Myositis in childhood is characterized by elevated serum levels of muscle-derived enzymes, proximal symmetrical muscle weakness, abnormal EMG and a muscle biopsy which frequently documents an inflammatory process. In the paediatric age group, JDMS is much more common than PM and occurs more frequently among females.

Myositis in childhood is characterized by elevated serum levels of muscle-derived enzymes, proximal symmetrical muscle weakness, abnormal EMG findings, and a muscle biopsy, which frequently documents an inflammatory process. In the pediatric age group, JDMS, which has characteristic cutaneous involvement in addition to myositis, is much more common ...

Immunopathogenesis of juvenile dermatomyositis

Muscle & Nerve, 2010
AbstractThere is increasing evidence for involvement of the mechanisms of the innate immune system in the pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs), especially in the adult and juvenile forms of dermatomyositis. Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is the most common form of childhood IIM, and this review focuses on recent advances in ...
