Myositis ossificans of the medial pterygoid muscles: A case report

Abstract

Myositis ossificans (MO) is a pathologic bone formation in soft tissue with unknown pathogenesis. In this article, we reported a case of long standing MO of right medial pterygoid muscle with severe limitation of mouth opening.
