    Abstract

    The inflammatory myopathies are a group of acquired skeletal muscle diseases that includes polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM), and inclusion body myositis (IBM). Myositis patients can also develop additional autoimmune diseases, as seen in the “overlap syndromes”. We recorded a case presenting the simultaneous occurrence of inflammatory myositis, neuropathy, and myasthenia gravis (with positive acetylcholine receptor antibodies).
