Focal myositis.
[focal myositis]
Focal
myositis
is
a
pseudotumor
of
soft
tissue
that
typically
occurs
in
the
deep
soft
tissue
of
the
extremities
,
and
is
a
relatively
rare
lesion
.
There
is
a
wide
clinical
spectrum
,
with
approximately
one
-
third
of
patients
with
focal
myositis
subsequently
developing
polymyositis
,
and
clinical
symptoms
of
generalized
weakness
,
fever
,
myalgia
,
and
weight
loss
,
with
elevation
of
creatine
phosphokinase
.
We
report
the
case
of
a
patient
with
focal
myositis
who
subsequently
developed
myositis
ossificans-like
features
.
