Focal myositis is a pseudotumor of soft tissue that typically occurs in the deep soft tissue of the extremities, and is a relatively rare lesion. There is a wide clinical spectrum, with approximately one-third of patients with focal myositis subsequently developing polymyositis, and clinical symptoms of generalized weakness, fever, myalgia, and weight ...

Inflammatory myositis in systemic lupus erythematosus
Lupus, 2020Background The coexistence of inflammatory myositis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has not been extensively studied. In this study, we describe the incidence, distinct types of inflammatory myositis, and risk factors for this finding in a cohort ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2001
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.

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2011
Dermatomyositis is associated with an underlying malignancy in about 24% of cases. This association is also true for polymyositis but is less prominent. The malignancy is usually an adenocarcinoma of the ovary, lung, or gastrointestinal tract in Western countries and nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Southeast Asia, Southern China, and Northern Africa ...

Bidirectional cell trafficking occurs between a mother and fetus during pregnancy. The trafficking is associated with the persistence of non-self cells. Persistence of these cells has been demonstrated after birth for many years in the child and mother.

A case of eosinophilic myositis associated with orbital myositis
Modern Rheumatology, 2002Abstract A 29-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of fever, myalgia, and ocular pain. She had been given norgesterone and ethinylestradiol orally. Laboratory data indicated the presence of systemic inflammation together with elevated levels of muscle enzymes.

Prognostic factors in 'pneumo-myositis'
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2018Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a major cause of death and disability in patients with polymyositis or dermatomyositis. To begin to improve patient outcomes, the clinical, demographic and therapeutic factors associated with poor prognosis for patients with ILD associated with polymyositis or dermatomyositis need to be identified.

A 5-year-old girl had a "flu-like" syndrome followed five days later by clinical and pathologic evidence of myositis localized to both calves. Serum complement fixation titers were compatible with influenza A viral infection. The illness improved spontaneously within a week.

Myositis Mimics: The Differential Diagnosis of Myositis
2019Abstract: Autoimmune myopathies are a heterogeneous family of diseases characterized by muscle weakness, elevated serum muscle enzymes, and muscle biopsies revealing inflammation and/or necrosis. Since patients with inherited muscle disease, inclusion body myositis, endocrine myopathies, and toxic myopathies can present with similar clinical features ...

Update on myositis-specific and myositis-associated autoantibodies
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000Myositis-specific autoantibodies or myositis-associated autoantibodies can often be found in serum of patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis. The presence of these autoantibodies can be significant in patient diagnosis and classification. Recent studies have provided new information about many of these specific autoantibodies.
