Left gluteal focal myositis in a patient with signet ring adenocarcinoma of the stomach: not a paraneoplastic phenomenon.
[focal myositis]
Focal
myositis
,
the
much
rarer
clinical
and
pathological
variant
of
polymyositis
,
is
generally
a
benign
inflammatory
pseudotumor
of
skeletal
muscle
Thus
far
,
only
three
cases
have
been
reported
in
association
with
a
neoplasm
.
We
now
describe
a
fourth
case
of
localized
gluteal
myositis
seen
in
a
case
of
signet
ring
adenocarcinoma
of
the
stomach
occurring
not
as
a
paraneoplastic
syndrome
,
as
in
the
previously
reported
three
cases
,
but
as
an
immunoinflammatory
response
around
metastatic
cell
foci
in
both
the
involved
muscles
and
local
lymphatics
.
