Abstract
We report the first case of non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) in a patient with cancer-associated myositis (CAM) that emerged along with the recurrence of the cancer. A 60-year-old woman, with a history of partial gastrectomy for gastric cancer 11 years ago, presented with exertional dyspnea with anti-Jo-1 antibody-positive myositis. Surgical lung biopsy showed NSIP with metastatic gastric cancer. Accordingly, her condition was diagnosed as CAM with cancer recurrence. In patients with a history of cancer, development of myositis may indicate cancer recurrence; therefore, careful observation would be necessary.

Abstract
The relationship between polymyositis and malignancy is well known. Several types of tumors can be complicated with myositis and/or more frequently dermatomyositis. It has been suggested that tumors of the large bowel are rarely complicated by myositis. We describe a patient with adenocarcinoma of the colon presenting as polymyositis and review the available literature.
