Abstract
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare autoimmune myopathy that presents with muscle weakness and characteristic skin manifestations. Certain malignancies are associated with DM, such as stomach, colorectal, ovarian, lung, pancreatic, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, there are only rare reports of endometrial cancer with DM. In this report, we describe a case of anti–TIF-1-gamma and anti-Mi-2 antibody positive DM in a patient with stage IV endometrial cancer. This case illustrates the importance of considering DM as a paraneoplastic syndrome regardless of both stage and type of malignancy.
