Abstract
The authors report a case of ossificans myositis, in which MRI showed inflammatory changes of the adjacent bone. T1 weighted fat saturation sequence with gadolinium injection showed enhancement of medullary and cortical bone. This potentially mistaking pattern must be known, to a void misdiagnosing with malignant osseous tumor, specially before achi evement of the caracteristic pattern of zonal maturation and its calci fied rim.
