| Description |
Dermatomyositis is a cutaneous disease with a 30% association with malignancy (Callen 1993). A CNS location for malignancy is rare, with pulmonary and gynecological tumors being more commonly implicated (Stockton 2001). Furthermore, there is only one prior report of dermatomyositis secondary to chondrosarcoma (Mol 1986) which involved the tibia. We present the first case of paraneoplastic dermatomyositis secondary to chondrosarcoma of the central nervous system. |
