Dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM) are both immune-mediated inflammatory myopathies known to occur in paraneoplastic syndromes associated with a new diagnosis of malignancy, most commonly breast, ovarian, lung, pancreatic, stomach, colorectal, and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in DM and breast, lung, bladder cancer, and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in PM. While inflammatory markers such as creatine kinase (CK) may be elevated with either DM or PM, marked elevation is rare. Herein, we report a case of newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer presenting with inflammatory myopathy and marked CK elevation. We review the frequency of PM as a paraneoplastic syndrome, the association with marked CK elevation, and the association with pancreatic cancer.
皮肌炎(DM)和多发性肌炎(PM)均为免疫介导的炎性肌病,已知可发生于与新诊断恶性肿瘤相关的副肿瘤综合征中,在皮肌炎中最常见于乳腺癌、卵巢癌、肺癌、胰腺癌、胃癌、结直肠癌和非霍奇金淋巴瘤,在多发性肌炎中最常见于乳腺癌、肺癌、膀胱癌和非霍奇金淋巴瘤。虽然肌酸激酶(CK)等炎症标志物在皮肌炎或多发性肌炎中可能升高,但显著升高较为罕见。在此,我们报告一例新诊断的胰腺癌患者,其表现为炎性肌病且肌酸激酶显著升高。我们回顾了多发性肌炎作为副肿瘤综合征的发生率、与肌酸激酶显著升高的关联以及与胰腺癌的关联。
