Abstract
Polymyositis and dermatomyositis are serious inflammatory muscle disorders which may present life-threatening complications. It is important to recognise and treat the condition in the early stages of the disease. Corticosteroids remain the mainstay of treatment, and their resistance and other forms of immunotherapy are discussed.Entities:
