AbstractAlthough dermatomyositis is known to be a possible paraneoplastic syndrome, often in the setting of gynecological cancers, Wong-type dermatomyositis-a rare variant of dermatomyositis-has not been clearly associated with internal malignancies to date. There is only one report from Japan of a woman who developed Wong-type dermatomyositis together with the recurrence of uterine cancer. We report the case of a Caucasian patient who presented with infrequent Wong-type dermatomyositis with positive anti-TIF1γ antibodies; screening for internal malignancies revealed fallopian tube carcinoma.
