Abstract
|
|
|
|
Panniculitis is a rare cutaneous finding in dermatomyositis (DM), presenting as tender subcutaneous nodules. Because panniculitis may precede other symptoms of DM, and its complications, including pain, lipoatrophy and carcinosis, might be severe and irreversible, early diagnosis and treatment of panniculitis is important. We herein describe a case of dermatomyositis first presenting as panniculitis in a 45-year old man.
