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 ...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
