Abstract

Dermatomyositis is an autoimmune disease that presents with proximal muscle weakness and characteristic skin lesions. Thoracic involvement is common and recognized three patterns of clinical presentation (respiratory failure due to respiratory muscle weakness, interstitial pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia) and three histopathologic patterns (usual interstitial or nonspecific pneumonia, diffuse alveolar damage and cryptogenic organizing pneumonia). Pulmonary manifestations in CT are diverse and depend on the type of lung involvement, including areas of consolidation or ground glass, septal thickening, to areas of honeycombing, in advanced cases
