Abstract

Dermatomyositis is a chronic inflammatory myopathy with severe prognosis. A 57-year-old woman suffering from dermatomyositis is presented who, in the course of the disease, developed acute spontaneous esophageal rupture due to dermatomyositis involvement of the esophagus. She was successfully treated with total esophagectomy and stomach interposition. This is the first report of spontaneous rupture of esophagus in dermatomyositis.
