Diagnosis of Pediatric Myositis Ossificans Based on Cytomorphology and Molecular Analysis From FNAB Sample: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐
