Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma in Dermatomyositis

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

The most common cancer associated with dermatomyositis in NPC‐endemic populations is NPC. 90% of dermatomyositis patients with NPC were diagnosed with cancer within a year of myositis onset, whereas the most delayed presentation of NPC occurred 22 months after myositis onset. There was a greater proportion of subclinical early‐stage cancer in NPC associated with dermatomyositis compared to general NPC. Dermatomyositis patients with early‐stage NPC have good survival outcomes while those with advanced‐stage NPC appear to have poorer prognosis compared to general NPC patients. Dermatomyositis patients with anti‐transcription intermediary factor (TIF)‐1ƴ antibodies had a 14.5‐fold higher risk of developing associated cancers compared with seronegative dermatomyositis.
