Myositis Ossificans Progressiva: Case Report

Myositis ossificans progressiva is a rare autosomal dominant disease with less than 1,000 case reports. Such patients present edema, caused by inflammatory processes that progressively calcify, and with loss of mobility in the region affected. The objective of this study was to describe a case of myositis ossificans progressiva, present its clinical manifestations and discuss the treatments ava...

Myositis ossificans progressive: case report

Myositis ossificans progressiva (MOP) is an autosomal dominant disorder. There is a progressive ectopic ossification and skeletal malformation, mainly in the connective tissue of muscle. The diagnosis is based on the clinical findings and radiological demonstration of the skeletal malformations. A 38-year-old female patient was admitted to our department with progressive increase of the thigh. ...

[Myositis ossificans circumscripta: a case report].

Myositis ossificans circumscripta is a benign lesion characterized by focal heterotopic soft tissue ossification, occurring in young people generally after localized trauma. Clinical and radiological appearances may mimic a sarcomatous neoplastic process. We report a case of myositis ossificans occurring after trauma, so as to illustrate the different imaging features of this benign pathology o...
