Abstract
Dermatomyositis (DM) is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy characterized predominantly by cutaneous and muscular abnormalities that can be associated with neoplasia. The association of dermatomyositis with nail melanoma is very rare, if not exceptional. We report the case of a paraneoplastic dermatomyositis due to an undiagnosed subungueal melanoma in a 70-year-old patient.
