%X Dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis are idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs), most associated with solid organ malignancies, and less commonly hematological malignancies. We discuss a case of DM associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, followed by a review of literature on the pathogenesis, clinical course, treatment, and prognosis. Various challenges with the diagnosis and management of underlying lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs) in patients with IIM are discussed. The case demonstrates the importance of being vigilant of the association between IIM and LPD. Cancer screening in patients with IIM is discussed, including the recently published International Guideline for IIM-Associated Cancer Screening. More research is required to address knowledge gaps in cancer screening in IIM.
