Dermatomyositis, juvenile: Symmetrical "lilac-coloured eythema". feeling of illness with fatigue, inability to perform, muscle weakness. pronounced hypertrichosis due to therapy with Ciclosporin.
dermatomyositis. flat, red-livid spots on the face of a 55-year-old woman with periorbital and perinasal accentuation. tired facial expression. general fatigue, muscle weakness and weight loss with underlying tumor disease. redness of the back of the fingers, megacapillaries in the capillary microscopy of the nail fold capillaries.
dermatomyositis. red-violet, slightly itchy, flat. blurred erythema in the décolleté and on the lateral parts of the neck. general fatigue and muscle weakness.
Dermatomyositis adult: acutely occurring, blurred and bizarrely limited, large-area, red to red-livid, hardly scaly erythema. Together with the erythema, general weakness and feeling of illness, distinct myopathy of the shoulder-arm musculature. 64-year-old patient.
Dermatomyositis (V-sign): Characteristic cutaneous symptoms of the backs of hands and fingers, almost proving the diagnosis of "collagenosis", with reddish-livid papules arranged in stripes, which merge to form flat plaques in the area of the end phalanges. Painful nail fold keratoses with parungual erythema are sometimes seen. Such papules arranged on the stretching side are also found in SLE and mixed collagenosis, rarely once in lichen planus.
Dermatomyositis. Gottron papules in a 72-year-old woman. Smaller, striated, reddish-livid papules appear, which confluent in the region of the end phalanges to form flat plaques. Strongly pronounced nail fold capillaries on dig. III and V. The Keining sign was strongly positive in the clinical examination.
Dermatomyositis (overview): Extensive, indicated striated erythema with reddish-livid papules which confluent in the region of the end phalanges to form extensive plaques; strongly pronounced nail fold capillaries.
Dermatomyositis (overview): Striped arrangement of red papules and plaques, which confluent to flat areas in the area of the end phalanges; strongly pronounced nail fold capillaries.
dermatomyositis: reflected light microscopy. hyperkeratotic nail folds. pathologically enlarged and torqued capillaries. older bleeding into the nail fold.

Dermatomyositis. interface dermatitis, orthokeratosis, distinct atrophy of the epithelium. reticular fibrin deposits in the papillary dermis. loose, partly diffuse, partly perivascularly oriented lymphocytic infiltrate. distinct edema especially in the middle sections of the dermis. the pattern of inflammation is compatible with dermatomyositis, but not conclusive.
