Overview
We describe the case report of a patient with Juvenile Dermatomyositis . In the thesis we used 2 standardized muscle tests: CMAS - Childhood Myositis Assessment Scale and MMT- Manual Muscle Test, Kendall test. We observed muscle test values in the timeframe May 2012- March 2014 during the whole cure in regular intervals. The values of the both tests were significantly dropping during the first four months this can be attributed to development of the disease. After 21 months of the cure, the muscle tests results are rather close to the results at the beginning of the disease. Of the 3 parts of evaluating muscle endurance, the deep neck flexors have improved by great margin. Abdominal muscles remain weak.
