| pubmed-article:20055847 | pubmed:abstractText | Dermatomyositis (DM) is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy associated with characteristic cutaneous features. Panniculitis is a rarely reported clinical finding in this condition. This report describes two cases of adult-onset DM complicated by severe calcific panniculitis. In both cases, the associated pain and loss of function seemed to be best managed on combination anti-malarial therapy with mepacrine and hydroxychloroquine. | lld:pubmed |
