Juvenile dermatomyositis associated with partial lipoatrophy

G M Kavanagh et al. J Am Acad Dermatol. 1993 Feb.

Abstract

A 26-year-old woman developed partial lipoatrophy 12 years after juvenile dermatomyositis was diagnosed. Renal function was normal, but she had other features typically associated with partial lipoatrophy, including hepatomegaly, acanthosis nigricans, hypertrichosis, and hyperinsulinemia.
