Abstract
|
|
|
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare progressive autoimmune disease characterized by inflammatory myopathy, which classically manifests as several characteristic cutaneous features, including Gottron¡¯s papules, periorbital heliotrope rashes, poikiloderma, and reticular telangiectasis. Vesicle or bulla formation in dermatomyositis was first reported in 1903, and a few similar cases have been reported since then. Bullous DM has been associated with internal malignancies. We herein describe a case of bullous DM with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung in a 69-year old man.
