Abstract

A 31-year-old woman with long-standing amyopathic dermatomyositis developed a maculopapular rash resembling erythema multiforme in some areas, accompanied by lymphadenopathy and malaise. An acute infection with Toxoplasma gondii was found to be the cause of clinical symptoms that mimicked an exacerbation of the underlying condition.
