Dermatomyositis is a myopathic or amyopathic autoimmune connective tissue disease that presents with classic dermatologic findings ranging from: poikilodermatous photosensitivity (shawl sign), eyelid edema and violaceous-pigmentation (heliotrope sign), lichenoid eruptions on the knuckles and elbows (Gottron's sign), periungual telangiectasias, and ragged cuticles (Samitz sign).

Increasing recognition of dermatomyositis with subcutaneous edema - is this a poorer prognostic marker?
Tu J, McLean-Tooke A, Junckerstorff R.
Dermatol Online J. 2014;20(1):21244.
Subcutaneous edema as a presenting feature of dermatomyositis has infrequently been described and is thought to signify a more aggressive disease course.
