Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are a group of chronic autoimmune systemic diseases affecting the skeletal muscle and other organs. IIMs are also a complex group of diseases, in some cases, difficult to manage. Literature on IIMs has been growing fairly rapidly and keeping up-to-date on such a topic is of utmost importance for any rheumatologist who looks after IIM patients. Thus, the aim of this review is to summarise the most relevant literature contributions published over the last year on the pathogenesis, serology, diagnosis and treatment of IIMs.
特发性炎性肌病（IIM）是一组影响骨骼肌和其他器官的慢性自身免疫性系统性疾病。IIM 也是一组复杂的疾病，在某些情况下，难以治疗。关于 IIM 的文献增长相当迅速，对于任何照顾 IIM 患者的风湿病学家来说，了解此类主题的最新信息至关重要。因此，本文旨在总结过去一年来关于 IIM 的发病机制、血清学、诊断和治疗的最相关文献。
