Abstract

Dermatomyositis developed suddenly in a diabetic patient with CREST syndrome after the removal of a malignant tumor. Scrupulous physical examination excluded further systemic or cutaneous involvement. We raise certain still unsolved aspects regarding the association between dermatomyositis and neoplastic disorders.
