Focal myositis of the temporal muscle

摘要

AbstractFocal myositis is a rare inflammatory disease of the skeletal muscle that may involve any part of the body. We present a 19‐year‐old man with a short history of a painful pseudotumor in the right temporal region. MRI pictures showed a swollen right temporal muscle and muscle biopsy revealed the characteristic histological and immunocytochemical findings of polymyositis. © 1993 John Wiley&Sons,
