Myositis of small foot muscles.
[focal myositis]
Idiopathic
focal
myositis
is
a
rare
clinical
entity
and
is
mostly
localized
in
the
neck
and
thigh
muscles
presenting
as
a
pseudotumor
.
We
describe
a
49
-
year
-old
patient
with
inflammation
restricted
to
the
small
muscles
of
one
forefoot
.
Systemic
disease
was
not
present
and
progression
to
polymyositis
did
not
occur
within
2
years
of
follow-up
.
The
myositis
improved
promptly
after
initiation
of
immunosuppressive
therapy
with
corticosteroids
and
azathioprine
.
This
unusual
location
of
focal
myositis
has
not
been
previously
reported
.
