Myositis and myonecrosis are rare sequela of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Until now, it has not been seen in muscles of the head and neck. We present a 22-year-old male with 4 months of retroauricular headaches following COVID-19 infection. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed rim-enhancing fluid collections in the bilateral masticator spaces which were sampled by fine-needle aspiration. We also discuss this case in the context of the current understanding of COVID-19-related myositis.
肌炎和肌坏死是2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)罕见的后遗症。迄今为止,尚未在头颈部肌肉中发现。我们报告一例22岁男性,在感染COVID-19后出现4个月的耳后头痛。磁共振成像显示双侧咀嚼肌间隙有边缘强化的液体积聚,通过细针穿刺取样。我们还结合目前对COVID-19相关肌炎的认识对该病例进行了讨论。
