Abstract

Myositis Ossificans is known to be a benign heterotopic pseudomalignant bone formation in muscle and other soft tissue. When it is revealed as a localized form, 75% of the cases are associated with significant blunt trauma. We report a rare case of a nontraumatic ossificans in the lower leg of a 59-year-old woman, which has been spontaneously developed for 15 years.
Key words: Lower leg, Nontraumatic myositis ossificans
