Abstract:Gastrointestinal investigation of 14 adult patients with polymyositis disclosed coeliac disease in five. The inflammatory myopathy in our patients is not the same as the myopathy often seen in coeliac disease with osteomalacia. One patient has been free from both gastrointestinal and muscular symptoms for 5 years on a gluten-free diet alone. The findings strongly suggest an association between polymyositis and adult coeliac disease.
Keywords:Coeliac disease  dermatomyositis  malabsorption syndrome  polymyositis
