Abstract

Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is rare, but serious disease with many possible complications. Hallmarks of this disease are heliotrope erythema, periorbital edema and Gottrone papules combined with symmetric proximal muscle weakness that usually slowly progresses over period of weeks and months. In most cases the age of onset is between 4 and 10 years. There are four subtypes of the disease with variable course, organ involvement
and long-term clinical outcome.
