Polymyositis: A manifestation of chronic graft-versus-host disease
Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology, 1991Co-Authors: R. Prussick, Marie Chelsea Brain, Irwin Walker, Daniel N. SauderAbstract:Polymyositis developed in a patient who had had bone marrow transplants for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. There was no previous evidence of graft-versus-host disease. Polymyositis has previously been reported to be associated with graft-versus-host disease; this article suggests that Polymyositis may represent its sole manifestation.

risk of cancer in patients with dermatomyositis or Polymyositis a population based study
The New England Journal of Medicine, 1992Co-Authors: B Sigurgeirsson, Bernt Lindelof, Olof Edhag, Erik AllanderAbstract:Abstract Background. An association between Polymyositis and cancer was first proposed in 1916, but the existence of the association has been disputed. An association between dermatomyositis and cancer is better accepted, but its magnitude is not known. Methods. We undertook a study to provide accurate estimates of the risk of cancer in patients with dermatomyositis or Polymyositis. We studied the incidence of cancer and the rate of mortality from cancer in a population-based cohort of 788 patients with dermatomyositis or Polymyositis in Sweden from 1963 through 1983. The results were compared with those for the general population. Results. Among the 396 patients with Polymyositis, 42 cancers were diagnosed at the same time or after Polymyositis was diagnosed in 37 patients (9 percent). The relative risk of cancer was 1.8 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.1 to 2.7) in the male patients and 1.7 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.0 to 2.5) in the female patients. Eighty-four males and 85 females died, and ...
