Myositis ossificans is a benign, ossifying soft-tissue lesion typically occurring within skeletal muscle. Patients are usually adolescents and young adults; myositis ossificans is rare in children under 10 years of age. The most frequent symptoms and signs are pain and tenderness with a soft tissue mass. Approximately 80% of cases arise in the large muscles of the extremities.
Myositis ossificans traumatica (latinized name) is produced as an insult (crushing injury) to muscle against bone. A hematoma (bloody mass) is formed against the periosteum and subsequently calcification and ossification occurs.
