Dermatomyositis and Pregnancy: A Case Report with Review of the Literature
View through CrossRef
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a systemic autoimmune disease, characterised mainly by non-infectious inflammatory involvement of the muscles and skin. The association of dermatomyositis with pregnancy is rarely described in the literature. We present a case of a patient with dermatomyositis who presented with clinical symptoms typical of dermatomyositis, confirmed by investigations. The patient was put on corticosteroids and Azathiopyrin, an ultrasound scan under treatment showed a pregnancy followed by an abortion shortly after the ultrasound scan.
