本文讨论了一个77岁的妇女的病例研究中与恶性肿瘤相关的无肌病性皮肌炎。皮肌炎的皮肤表现包括Gottron丘疹、甲周毛细血管扩张、光敏性、日光性眶周疹和色素沉着。这些皮肤发现可能先于炎症性近端肌病的发展,这是这种疾病的另一个特征。无肌病性皮肌炎一词于1979年首次使用,指的是那些有皮肌炎典型皮肤表现,肌肉受累很少或没有肌肉受累的患者。在成人中,皮肌炎与内脏恶性肿瘤有关,但有人认为无肌病性皮肌炎与此无关。
The article discusses amyopathic dermatomyositis associated with malignancy in a case study of a 77 year old woman. Cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis include Gottron's papules, periungual telangiectasias, photosensitivity, a heliotrope periorbital eruption and poikiloderma. These skin findings may precede the development of an inflammatory, proximal myopathy, the other characteristic feature of this disease. The term amyopathic dermatomyositis was first used in 1979 in reference to those patients with classic cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis with minimal or no muscle involvement. In adults, dermatomyositis has been associated with internal malignancy, but it has been suggested that amyopathic dermatomyositis lacks this association.
