[Polymyositis, dematomyositis: overlap syndromes with connective tissue diseases and malignancies].
Polymyositis and Dermatomyositis are often connected with autoimmune diseases and are closely linked with specific autoantibodies. Clinical manifestations are mild in correlation with clinical picture ofmyositis related to malignancy. Pulmonary complications are main cause of mortality in overlap syndromes with autoimmune diseases. Infection, cardiovascular complications and underlying malignan...
متن کاملImmunolocalization and partial characterization of a nucleolar autoantigen (PM-Scl) associated with polymyositis/scleroderma overlap syndromes.
Precipitating anti-PM-Scl antibodies are present in sera from patients with polymyositis, scleroderma, and polymyositis/scleroderma overlap syndromes. By indirect immunofluorescence microscopy, anti-PM-Scl antibodies stained the nucleolus in cells of different tissues and species, suggesting that the antigen is highly conserved. By electron microscopy, anti-PM-Scl antibodies reacted primarily w...
متن کامل'Overlap' syndromes.
Many of us at the end of a weekly lupus clinic are tempted to reflect that almost all shades of connective tissue 'overlap' occur, and that it is perhaps pointless to attempt too precise a definition in individual cases. The introduction of the concept of overlap syndromes was a pragmatic way to resolve an imprecise compromise. It represented an attempt to categorise various groups of disorders...
متن کاملAntibodies to nuclear antigens in polymyositis: relationship to autoimmune 'overlap syndromes' and carcinoma.
Thirty-two patients with polymyositis were categorised into 4 groups: (1) 'pure' polymyositis, (2) dermatomyositis, (3) myositis associated with autoimmune 'overlap syndrome', and (4) those with associated malignancy. Serum from each patient was examined for a range of antinuclear antibodies. Seventeen patients had ANA detected by immunofluorescence, 18 patients had raised DNA binding (greater ...
متن کاملBilateral coxitis in scleroderma-polymyositis overlap syndrome.
Joint manifestations in scleroderma (Scl) and polymyositis (PM) are dominated by inflammatory arthralgia. Arthritis is less common and preferentially affects the hands, wrists, knees, and ankles. Involvement of the hip has been rarely reported in the literature. We report a case of coxitis diagnosed in a patient suffering from scleroderma-polymyositis overlap syndrome successfully treated by ul...
