PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. Dermatomyositis and polymyositis Dermatomyositis and polymyositis are a mixture of various inflammatory diseases of the muscles with or without inflammation of skin too. Both polymyositis and dermatomyositis have an autoimmune basis (and respond to immunosuppression), but the basic mechanisms for the conditions are different and they have specific clinical and histological features. They may be associated with other autoimmune diseases such as myasthenia gravis Hashimoto's thyroiditis systemic sclerosis and Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinaemia. Damage to capillaries would seem to be an underlying pathology in dermatomyositis. For more about the pathological basis of these diseases, see the e-medicine article in the Internet section at the end. It is possible to divide the conditions into 5 basic subgroups according to aetiology: Primary idiopathic polymyositis in adults Idiopathic dermatomyositis in adults Childhood dermatomyositis or myositis with necrotizing vasculitis Polymyositis associated with connective tissue diseases Polymyositis or dermatomyositis associated with malignancy Epidemiology: The disease occurs in between 5 and 10 people of every 100,000. Juvenile dermatomyositis has an incidence of 2 or 3 per million per year.

Although the disorder is rare, with a prevalence of one to 10 cases per million in adults and one to 3.2 cases per million in children, early recognition and treatment are important ways to decrease the morbidity of systemic complications. An association with other connective tissue disorders (overlap syndrome) and malignancy make this diagnosis particularly important to primary care physicians. Patient management includes careful evaluation for underlying malignancy and liberal use of physical therapy, antihistamines, sunscreen and oral corticosteroids. Poor prognostic indicators include poorly responsive disease, delay in diagnosis and the presence of malignancy. The therapeutic goal is to maintain function and prevent or minimize sequelae. (Am Fam Physician 2001;64:1565-72.)
