Paraneoplastic Dermatomyositis Associated with Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma

Dermatomyositis (DM) is frequently associated with neoplastic disease, particularly in elderly individuals. All histological types and locations of cancer can be involved. The association between DM and bronchogenic carcinoma has been demonstrated in several studies. We report a case of dermatomyositis revealing a small-cell bronchogenic carcinoma.

Abstract

Dermatomyositis (DM) is frequently associated with neoplastic disease, particularly in elderly individuals. All histological types and locations of cancer can be involved. The association between DM and bronchogenic carcinoma has been demonstrated in several studies. We report a case of dermatomyositis revealing a small-cell bronchogenic carcinoma.
