Dermatol. praxi. 2012;6(4):183-185  

Dermatomyositis is ranked among chronic autoimmune connective tissue disease with disabilities, muscle and skin. The disease is probably caused by reaction of specific autoantibodies or immune complex reactions directed against the vascular component endomyzia. This autoimmune response may be started by infections (viruses, bacteria, parasites). UV rays and other medications are possible triggers. Around 20–25 % of cases of dermatomyositis is associated with the occurrence of cancer. The case report documents the emergence of typical clinical manifestations of dermatomyositis with 64 years old women with a history of ovarian cancer.

The outcome of the gender reassignment in patients with male-to-female transsexualism is very accurate imitation of female genitalia enabling an intercourse with orgasm. The outcome of an inverse reassignment depends on the used technique, preserves possibility of an orgasm and can bring possibility of micturition in standing position and satisfactory neopenis appearance.
