H. Jardin et al., A NEW CASE OF RHEUMATOID-ARTHRITIS ASSOCI ATED WITH NON DRUG-INDUCED POLYMYOSITIS, La Revue de medecine interne, 17(4), 1996, pp. 321-324
Muscular manifestations are frequent during rheumatoid arthritis, most
ly induced by drugs. In contrast with rheumatoid myositis whose existe
nce has been debated, penicillamine induced polymyositis and dermatomy
ositis are well described. We report a case of rheumatoid arthritis as
sociated with non-drug induced polymyositis.
