[Post traumatic myositis ossificans of the iliopsoas muscle. Apropos of a case with review of the literature].

A case of traumatic myositis ossificans of the iliopsoas muscle in a 13 year old ballet dancer is presented. A history of multiple minor injuries to the region of the left hip in addition to the radiographic appearance of calcification were indicative of ectopic bone formation. The lesion was explored surgically because of the clinical symptoms of the coexistant femoral hernia as well as to obtain biopsy material to exclude a soft tissue tumor. Histological examination demonstrated the zoning effect of myositis ossificans with patterns varying from a cellular central zone to a peripheral one of fairly well oriented bone. The patient remains symptom-free and no radiographic evidence of recurrence was observed four years postoperatively.

Circumscribed myositis ossificans of the iliopsoas muscle. Description of a case followed-up after 1 and 14 years.

The term myositis ossificans (MO) means a pathology characterized by the formation of heterotopic bone tissue within the connective tissue of the muscle. Two clearly differentiated forms of the disease are described: one is generalized and one is localized or circumscribed (CMO). It is the purpose of this study to describe a case of circumscribed myositis ossificans located in the iliopsoas muscle, clinically by CT scan and followed-up after 1 and 14 years.

Myositis ossificans traumatica. Association with hemophilia (factor XI deficiency) in a football player.

A case report of an outstanding college football halfback with partial factor XI deficiency, recurrent ecchymosis, and myositis ossificans is reviewed. The association of multiple areas of myositis ossificans and partial clotting-factor deficiency has not been noted in the past. The importance of considering this diagnosis in participants in contact sports with the above findings is emphasized.

Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans in children. Description of a case and review of the literature.

The authors report a rare case of pseudomalignant myositis ossificans occurring during childhood. A female aged 10 years with no previous history of trauma came to their observation with findings of pain and progressive swelling in the gluteal region. The severity of the clinical findings and the absence of characteristic ossification in the x-rays obtained at the onset of the disease suggested that neoplastic pathology be excluded. Diagnosis (bone scan, CT scan, MRI, angiography, biopsy) and the progression of the disease, until its complete clinical resolution, are discussed in light of a review of the literature (44 cases of pseudomalignant myositis ossificans during pediatric age). All of the elements that may be of help in diagnosis and capable of avoiding surgical procedures that are either untimely or improper are emphasized.

Myositis ossificans complicating severe Guillain-Barré syndrome.

We report myositis ossificans occurring in a 13-year-old boy with severe and rapidly progressive Guillain-Barré syndrome. This complication should be considered when severe musculoskeletal pain is experienced by such patients. Disodium etidronate may be of benefit in this condition.

The use of intraosseous anesthesia in a patient with myositis ossificans progressiva.

The case of a pediatric patient with myositis ossificans progressiva in whom it became increasingly difficult to obtain local anesthesia is presented. Intraosseous anesthesia was successful in allowing pain-free dental treatment to be completed. This approach should be considered in other patients who have limited mouth-opening ability due to injury or disease.
