Abstract
Dermatomyositis is a rare and idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with characteristic cutaneous manifestations. A 61-year-old female presented with the chief complaints of proximal muscle weakness, facial edema and erythema on the face, chest and back. The patient was diagnosed with dermatomyositis by the clinical manifestation, laboratory findings and an electromyogram. After a year following appropriate treatment, a tonsil cancer was found. The patient was treated with three rounds of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and wide excision of the left tonsil. In Korea, a few cases of dermatomyositis have been reported associated with stomach cancer, breast cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lung cancer, but no associated cases with tonsil cancer have yet been reported. We report a case of tonsil cancer that developed in a patient with dermatomyosits during therapy.
