Abstract

MARTINEZ ORTEGA, E. et al. Dermatomiositis en el diagnóstico del cáncer: carcinoma de mama y de vesícula biliar. Oncología (Barc.) [online]. 2005, vol.28, n.4, pp.31-34. ISSN 0378-4835.

Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome associated with different tumors. It can precede the tumor appearance or go on simultaneously or even appear years after the tumor is diagnosed. We report two cases of patients with DM associated with breast cancer and gallbladder cancer, and make a review of the main interesting points for oncologists.

Keywords : Dermatomyositis; Paraneoplastic syndrome; Breast cancer; Gallbladder cancer.
