Dermatomyositis

Dermatomyositis (V-sign): Characteristic cutaneous symptoms of the backs of hands and fingers, almost proving the diagnosis of "collagenosis", with reddish-livid papules arranged in stripes, which merge to form flat plaques in the area of the end phalanges. Painful nail fold keratoses with parungual erythema are sometimes seen. Such papules arranged on the stretching side are also found in SLE and mixed collagenosis, rarely once in lichen planus.

Dermatomyositis. Gottron papules in a 72-year-old woman. Smaller, striated, reddish-livid papules appear, which confluent in the region of the end phalanges to form flat plaques. Strongly pronounced nail fold capillaries on dig. III and V. The Keining sign was strongly positive in the clinical examination.

Dermatomyositis (overview): Extensive, indicated striated erythema with reddish-livid papules which confluent in the region of the end phalanges to form extensive plaques; strongly pronounced nail fold capillaries.
