Abstract

|
|
We present two cases of childhood dermatomyositis. Case 1 was a 4 year old girl who developed erythematous swelling on the face, violaceous papules on the dorsum of the hands, and progressive muscle weakness which led to walking difficulty. Case 2 was a 11 year old girl who had diffuse erythematous confluent patches with fine scales on the face. Poikilodermatous changes on the whole body and progressive muscle weakness in lower extremities developed. These cases were confirmed by clinical appearance, laboratory findings and histopathologic findings.
