2 Myositis classification Most of the literature is based on this paper:

3 Peter and Bohan criteria for PM or DM 1. Symmetrical proximal muscle weakness; 2. Muscle biopsy abnormalities : 1. Muscle fiber destruction; 2. Muscle fiber regeneration; 3. Perivascular and interstitial inflammatory infiltrates with muscle fiber destruction. 3. Elevation of CPK, Transaminases, LDH or aldolase activity; 4. Electromyography changes: 1. Fibrillation potentials (on needle insertion at rest); 2. Complex repetitive discharges (on needle insertion at rest); 3. Positive sharp waves (on needle insertion at rest); 4. Short duration, low amplitude complex (polyphasic) potentials on contraction. 5. Typical skin rash. DEFINITE: any 4 of the criteria PROBABLE: any 3 of the criteria

4 Example, 84 years old patient 75 y, proximal deficit, difficulties to climb stairs 79 y, proximal and distal muscle weakness (anterior tibialis, quadriceps, finger and wrist flexors, ankle dorsiflexors) 82 y, use a stick Swallowing tbs

5 CK: 450 U/l EMG: myogenic syndrome Muscular biopsy Old patient 2 Diagnosis : polymyositis. (definite with Peter and Bohan criteria) Treatment : 2 years 1) Corticosteroids 2) IVIg No success 2 nd biopsy
