Myositis ossificans is a solitary benign ossifying lesion in the soft tissue. Occurring predominantly in muscles, a similar lesion may occasionally be found in subcutaneous tissues, tendons, fascia and periosteum. It is often misdiagnosed as an extraskeletal osteosarcoma because of its rapid growth. Therefore, it is sometimes called pseudomalignant myositis ossificans. Myositis ossificans rarely occurs in the distal portion of the finger. We present a case of myositis ossificans of finger and review the the clinical, radiographical, and histological presentation, as well as the appropriate therapeutic management.

국한성 화골성 근염은 근육내에 섬유조직과 이소성 골이 형성되는 질환으로 외상성 화골성 근염으로도 알려져 있으며 외상, 외과적 술식, 지속적인 자극에 의하여 근육이 골화되는 질환이다. 주로 팔, 다리 근육에서 발생되며, 저작근에서 발생되는 예는 드물다. 저작근에 발생된 경우 주된 임상증상은 개구제한이며 환자는 이환부위의 동통이나 불편함을 호소하기도 한다. 본 연구는 30대 남성이 개구제한을 주소로 내원하여 임상검사와 방사선검사 후 저작근중에서 좌측 측두근과 외측 익돌근에서 발생된 국한성 화골성 근염으로 진단 내려진 증례를 보고하고자 한다.

The aspiration cytologic finding of myositis ossificans is not well documented but similar to that seen in nodular fasciitis except less cellularity. Myositis ossificans is a reactive condition that is sometimes mistaken microscopically for extraosseous osteosarcoma. Cytologically, myositis ossificans may be distinguished from extraosseous osteosarcoma by the presence of uniform benign stromal cells composed of mature fibroblasts and osteoclastic giant cells. However, the differential diagnosis may be difficult in the early stage of this reactive and proliferative process. We recently experienced a case of myositis ossificans. The patient was a 67-year -old woman with painful swelling of the left index finger for one month. Simple x-ray finding showed a soft tissue mass with calcific center at middle phalanx of the left hand. Fine needle aspiration cytology revealed a few individual or clusters of spindle cells in dense eosinophilic stroma with osteoclastic giant cells. The spindle cells were uniform smooth-bordered, and oval nuclei with single small inconspicuous nucleoli, and elongated cytoplasm. The scattered individual cells had eccentric nuclei with one or two nucleoli and abundant, basophilic cytoplasm.

Myositis ossificans progressiva, otherwise called fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare hereditary disease of unknown etiology, which is characterized by progressive ectopic ossification in connective tissues of the muscles, tendons, fascia and aponeurosis. We report a case of myositis ossificans progressiva confined to hands and feet, which has an unusual clinical feature with slow progression.

The two main forms of myositis ossificans are congenital and acquired. Either form is rare in the head and neck region. The acquired form is often due to trauma, with bullying as a fairly common cause. This report of myositis ossificans of the platysma in an 11-year-old female patient emphasizes the need for a high index of suspicion in unexplainable facial swellings in children and the benefit of modern investigative modalities in their management.

정상적인 골 조직에서의 성장과는 달리 연부조직에 2차적으로 비정상적인 골 조직이 신생되면서 골화되는 현상을 골화성 근염 또는 화골성 근염이라고 하며, 연부조직에 생긴 골은 가장 안쪽에는 어떤 원인에 의해서 생긴 출혈 또는 괴사 조직의 주위를 섬유모세포가 둘러싸서 생긴 층이 있고, 그 다음으로 골모세포(osteoblasts)로 형성된 미성숙 골조직 충이 있으며, 마지막 주위의 결합조직과 명확한 경계를 이루는 성숙한 골 소주로 구성된 층이 있다. 골화성 근염은 그 원인이 정확히 밝혀지지 않았으나. 혈류의 정체로 인한 저산소증, 비정상적인 칼슘 대사, 미세한 외상의 반복 및 심한 외상, 장기간 고정, 유전적인 원인 등으로 각기 다른 양상의 골화성 근염을 형성할 수 있다. 골화성 근염이라는 단어는 1868년에 Von Dusch에 의해 처음 사용되어 명확한 구분 없이 연부조직에 생긴 비정상 골조직을 일컫는 말로 사용되어져 왔다. 하지만 골화성 근염이라 할지라도 발생 원인과 조직 변화 및 상태 등을 고려한다면 첫째로 선천성 기형과 전신이환을 동반하는 진행성 골화성 근염, 둘째로 신경근과 만성질병, 사지마비, 소아마비, 화상. 다발성 관염 . 파상풍을 가진 환자에게서 발생하는 골화성 근염인 이소성 골화증, 새 번째로 연부조직의 심한 손상 또는 반복적인 손상, 골절, 탈구, 열상 외과적 절개에 대한 부차적인 반응으로 나타나는 외상성 골화성 근염. 네 번째로 위의 세 가지 원인이 아닌 원인으로 발생하는 비외상성 골화성 근염으로 분명히 구분할 수 있다. 때문에 단순히 골화성 근염이란 단어로 연부조직에 생긴 비정상적인 골을 통칭하기보다는 지금까지 언급한 내용을 고려해 보다 구체적인 질환명 즉 골화성 근염이 진행성인지. 이소성인지. 외상성인지. 비외상성인지를 명확히 구분하여 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.

Purpose: Myositis ossificans is a benign condition of heterotopic bone formation that still requires more of its pathologic explanation. The lesions are localized predominantly to the high-risk sites of injury, involving flexor muscles of the upper limbs and thigh, but rarely in the head and neck area. Methods: A case of a 44-year-old male patient presented with a palpable hard mass on nasal dorsum. The patient experienced a similar lesion on upper limb few years ago. On computed tomographic image, the lesion presented focal definite increase in opacity compatible to adjacent bone densitiy on nasal dorsum. Results: The lesion was excised under open rhinoplasty incision. The pathologic report revealed focal bone formation and calcification within skeletal muscle. Conclusion: We describe a unique and only case of a myositis ossificans on nasal dorsum which is indifferent from previous concept.

Myositis ossificans is a condition characterized by ossification within a muscle. It is a rare and unusual pathologic entity that has defied medical efforts to establish a definite etiology, pathogenesis, and satisfactory treatment of the disease. The condition predominantly affects the flexor muscles of the upper limbs and thighs, but rarely the head and neck area. A 53-year-old male patient visited our medical institution complaining of trismus, defined as limited mouth opening. The patient had a history of trauma to the facial bones and the computed tomography scans revealed calcification in the left temporalis muscle. The patient underwent surgical removal of the calcified mass with bilateral coronoidectomy under general anesthesia. Mouth opening at the end of post-operative 2 months was 28 mm. His oral intake of food was satisfactory. Myositis ossificans of the temporalis muscle is a very rare case. Satisfactory outcome was obtained by combining surgical excision of the affected muscle, coronoidectomy, and detachment of the insertion site of the ossified muscle.

We had experienced a case of traumatic myositis ossificans arising in right masseter muscle, inferior to zygomatic arch occurred on 25 year old male. He had some trauma on the site one year ago and visited with complaint of mouth opening limitation and swelling. Palpable mass with facial disfigurement was noted. and several ovoid radiopaque masses were revealed on C.T. examination. On histopathologic examination, multiple bone trabeculae with osteoblasts in its periphery was noted in connective tissues and invaded to neighbouring muscles, but any chondroid components were not revealed.

진행성 골화성 근염은 매우 드물게 보는 유전성 질환으로서 선천성 족무지 기형과 근막, 건막, 건, 인대 및 골격근육의 간질조직내 결체조직의 부종, 석회화를 거쳐 진행성으로 골화를 일으킴을 특징으로 하는 질환이다. 본 질환은 근본적으로 골격근 자체는 정상이나 근본 병리결함이 결체조직에 발생함으로 종래 사용하던 병명인 '진행성 골화성 근염' 대신 '진행성 골화성 섬유이형성증'이라 칭하는 것이 합당하다고 주장되고 있다. 저자는 최근 일가족 남매에 발생한 진행성 골화성 근염 2예를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.
