Focal myositis of the neck with idiopathic orbital myositis.
[focal myositis]
Focal
myositis
(
of
Heffner
)
in
the
right
trapezius
and
paraspinal
muscles
accompanied
by
a
pseudotumour
of
the
left
orbit
has
not
been
reported
previously
.
The
clinical
,
pathological
and
radiological
features
of
these
unusual
benign
pseudotumours
of
the
head
and
neck
are
discussed
.
Computerized
tomography
(
CT
)
scan
of
the
neck
and
orbital
ultrasound
were
suggestive
of
an
inflammatory
process
without
an
abscess
formation
.
This
was
followed
by
fine
needle
aspiration
cytology
(
FNAC
)
,
which
confirmed
the
diagnosis
.
The
patient
was
treated
with
intravenous
steroids
and
antibiotics
,
that
led
to
complete
resolution
of
symptoms
,
and
there
was
no
recurrence
at
six
months
follow-up
.
This
report
highlights
the
importance
of
imaging
in
inflammatory
neck
swellings
.
