Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune connective tissue disease, affecting mostly women of childbearing age. Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare autoimmune inflammatory myopathy affecting both skin and muscles. Overlap syndrome is an autoimmune disease which shares features of at least two recognised connective tissue diseases. We present a case of an overlap syndrome refractory to treatment.
