| Core Tip |
Macrophage activation syndrome is a potentially life-threatening complication of rheumatic disorders that occurs most commonly in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or adult-onset Still’s disease; it has rarely been reported in patients with dermatomyositis. Here, we describe a typical case of macrophage activation syndrome that developed in a 44-year-old woman with dermatomyositis, who presented with high serum ferritin level, cytopenia, liver dysfunction, and central nervous system symptoms. This report was written to increase awareness of this life-threatening condition associated with dermatomyositis. |
