I've always thought #dermatology's great because of the ability to understand what might be happening underneath the skin. Let's chat today about all things #paraneoplastic! Time to get our #tweetorial/#medthread on!

Caveats:
- I can't cover ALL the paraneoplastic syndrome of the skin, so apologies if I miss your favorite!
- Management of these syndromes is variable, so I'm presenting what I've learned.
- Lots of one-off case reports. I'll focus on the more common paraneoplastic stuff.

Let's start with one we tend to think of first - #dermatomyositis (DM)! This could be it's own tweetorial, so I'll be brief here. DM is a clinical diagnosis, no biopsies are necessary! If the skin exam is classic, that's all we need.
