| Popis: | Psoriasis with polymyositis although both are autoimmune diseases, they have rarely been reported together. Psoriasis is a papulosquamous skin disease with erythematous papules or plaques and silvery scales. Polymyositis is an autoimmune disease with inflammatory myopathy affecting predominantly proximal muscles. We report a case of psoriasis with steroid resistant polymyositis. Key point Weather there is similar autoimmune process in the pathogenesis of polymyositis and psoriasis needs to be searched and identified. Citation: Sofi F, Parrey A, Ahmad M, Ahmad B.
