Abstract
- This article discusses a rare case of erythrodermic dermatomyositis (DM) with anti-TIF1-γ antibodies. Erythroderma is a condition characterized by widespread redness and scaling of the skin, and it can be caused by various factors including autoimmune diseases like DM. The article presents four cases of erythrodermic DM with positive anti-TIF1-γ antibodies. The patients in the study had mild muscle involvement and no signs of malignancy. Treatment for erythrodermic DM typically involves systemic corticosteroids and other immunosuppressants. The article emphasizes the need for close monitoring of these patients for complications, including malignancy. [Extracted from the article]
