Abstract

DERMATOMYOSITIS WITH ANTI-NXP2 POSITIVE ANTIBODIES REVEALED BY RECURRENT CUTANEOUS CALCINOSIS IN AN 8-YEAR-OLD BOY: CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW

Omar Moussa Sougueh,* Manira Moussa, Houssein Omar, Dini N.

ABSTRACT

We report the case of an 8-year-old boy with no significant family history who presented with subcutaneous nodules and diffuse cutaneous calcinosis. His symptoms included non-inflammatory arthralgia, myalgia, muscle fatigue, and photosensitivity. Clinical examination revealed proximal muscle weakness and characteristic cutaneous lesions of dermatomyositis. The diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of anti-NXP2 positive antibodies and the absence of biological inflammatory syndrome. Oral corticosteroid therapy was initiated. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis in dermatomyositis, especially in atypical pediatric forms associated with cutaneous calcifications.
