Cancer, 1977
Focal myositis, a new distinct clinicopathologic entity, is a benign inflammatory pseudotumor of skeletal muscle. Based on a study of 16 cases, the disease which affects both children and adults typically evolves over a period of several weeks as a localized painful swelling within the soft tissue of an extremity.

Dermatomyositis appears to be associated with a greater frequency of malignancy than expected in the general population. For polymyositis, there does not appear to be a greatly increased risk of malignancy. Ovarian cancer may be overrepresented in women with dermatomyositis and difficult to detect.

The discovery of novel autoantigen systems related to idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (collectively referred to as myositis) in adults and children has had major implications for the diagnosis and management of this group of diseases across a wide range of medical specialties.

Australasian Radiology, 2001
SUMMARYFocal myositis is a rare, benign focal inflammation of muscle. The lesion often presents as a mass that may be mistaken for a soft tissue sarcoma. This report describes the MRI and histopathological features of a case and illustrates how the diagnosis may be suspected on the basis of the MR findings.

Streptococcal myositis (SM), is a very serious condition with a high mortality rate. The port of entry of the infection is often unknown. We present here a case report concerning a 68-year-old patient with fulminant SM preceded by symptoms of an upper respiratory tract infection. Haemolytic streptococci of group A were found in the blood, muscle tissue

SUMMARYInfantile polymyositis is rarely diagnosed, so potentially treatable children may be missed. Three children with the disease are presented who have responded well to steroid treatment. In all three cases the original diagnosis had been congenital muscular dystrophy.RÉSUMÉMyosite infantileLa polymyosite infantile est rarement diagnostiquée et ...

Ocular myositis frequently manifests with orbital pain and diplopia. The diagnosis of ocular myositis falls within the overall classification of idiopathic orbital inflammatory diseases, defined as non-infective non-specific orbital inflammation without identifiable local or systemic causes.

The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs; also known as myositis) are a heterogeneous group of disorders in which a common feature is chronic inflammation of skeletal muscle, leading to muscle weakness. Other organs are frequently affected in IIMs, such as the skin, joints, lungs, gastrointestinal tract and heart, contributing to morbidity and ...

Idiopathic inflammatory myositis in children includes multiple disease entities, but is primarily made up of juvenile dermatomyositis and, to a lesser degree, juvenile polymyositis. Much new information has been published in the last few years about these diseases, including the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and outcomes and treatment.

As with the treatment of many immune-mediated diseases, managing myositis encompasses diverse factors, which present a challenge to the physician caring for these patients. The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs, also known as myositis), are fundamentally heterogeneous; many contributory immunological perturbations are involved in the ...
