Nontraumatic myositis ossificans in healthy individuals
K. M. Samuelson and S. S. Coleman
Myositis ossificans has been subclassified into three categories:
traumatic, progressive, or those cases associated with neuromuscular and
chronic disease. Four cases of myositis ossificans occurred in otherwise
healthy individuals without any history of trauma. These four patients
illustrate a fourth and distinct subclassification of the disease.
