Case presentation We present two female patients, ages 11 years old and 4 years old, who presented to the ED with anasarca and were subsequently diagnosed with JDM. [ped-rheum.biomedcentral.com]

• Pleural Effusion

  Some definitions of anasarca focus on the presence of subcutaneous (body wall and/or extremity) edema 1,2,7, while others focus on pleural effusions and ascites 3. [radiopaedia.org]

  Although large pleural effusions are rare in amyloidosis, they are usually exudative and may be due to direct pleural infiltration or amyloid-induced heart, liver, renal or thyroid failure. [jhu.pure.elsevier.com]

  Chest and abdomen CT showed massive bilateral pleural effusions, but no lung infiltrate, pericardial effusion or ascites or lymphadenopathy. [bloodjournal.org]

  There were pleural thickening and encysted pleural effusion on the left, and atelectasis of adjacent lung portions. The right hemithorax showed small pleural effusion and thickening, in addition to a small nonspecific opacity in the right lung base. [scielo.br]

  Chest radiograph at that time revealed bilateral pleural effusions that were both reportedly milky in appearance when drained by thoracenteses. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Facial Edema

  One week prior to renal biopsy, he had the sudden onset of facial edema and a urine protein/creatinine ratio of 7.8. Image 1. No change by light microscopy. Image 2. Diffuse and complete foot process effacement. [arkanalabs.com]
