Amyopathic dermatomyositis resembling stasis dermatitis. [JOURNAL ARTICLE]
J Am Acad Dermatol 2008 Jun 19.
This case describes an unusual presentation of dermatomyositis in a patient with ovarian carcinoma. The eruption appeared as a venous stasislike dermatitis. The temporal sequence of onset after chemotherapy administration suggested a possible drug-induced process. However, in the context of underlying ovarian carcinoma, a paraneoplastic process offered an alternative explanation for the dermatomyositis.
