Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) diagnosis is frequently delayed or confused with another class of disorders, and misdiagnosis is common. Sometimes, we have problems diagnosing an sIBM in the early stages or predicting when a PM is going to become an sIBM. In this sense, we believe that p62 immunostaining could help clinicians. ⋯ Probably p62 immunostaining could help to distinguish PM patients that are going to become sIBM, but to date there has been no systematic study to clarify p62 utility in myositis.
