Mujer de 77 años con astenia de 4 meses de evolución y aparición de pápulas eritematosas sobre prominencias óseas de ambas manos (pápulas de Gottron), eritema facial, periocular en heliotropo, escote y muslos.
En la aréola mamaria izquierda presentaba una lesión ulcerada e infiltrada
Se realizó biopsia de las lesiones cutáneas de muslo, con diagnóstico histológico compatible con dermatomiositis, y de la mama izquierda, que evidenció un carcinoma ductal infiltrante HER 2+.
The first phrase doesn't make sense. Heliotropo is a skin rash or color, not a location. Why is it listed here as if it's referring to a region? Periocular doesn't make grammatical sense either. Thoughts?

: Yes, more accurate than my guess. I have also found 'periocular “heliotrope rash”.
