Myositis Ossificans Traumatica of Lateral and Medial Pterygoid Muscles: a Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
A 19 years male patient came to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery outpatient department with chief complaint of progressively reducing mouth opening for the past four months. History, clinical and radiological examination strongly suggested it to be a rare case of myositis ossificans traumatica which was subsequently confirmed histopathologically. The patient was managed by extirpation of the ossified left lateral and medial pterygoid muscles with interpositioning of split thickness temporalis muscle and fascia flap and post-operative mouth opening exercises. Satisfactory mouth opening was achieved. However recurrence/relapse was noted soon after.
