Skin Signs

Many neuromuscular diseases are expressed by skin manifestations such as dermatomyositis. Skin changes of dermatomyositis can be of many types and be subtle in dark skin. They include heliotropes, periungual telangiectasia, and thickening and fissuring of the skin. Unlike SLE rash, dermatomyositis rash affects the knuckles. Many systemic inflammatory diseases are associated with neuromuscular disease, such as vasculitis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and scleroderma. Steroids may lead to acne like skin lesions that should be differentiated from the rash of the underlying disease. This chapter provides examples of skin signs that are associated with neuromuscular diseases.
