Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign, self-limiting, and nonneoplastic lesion involving the skeletal muscle or soft tissue, rarely occurring in the head and neck. It is relatively rare in clinical practice, and it is difficult to distinguish specific cases from musculoskeletal conditions, which poses unique challenges for clinical diagnosis and treatment. We reported that a 9-year-old boy suffered from local and nontraumatic MO of the trapezius muscle. Given the rarity of this case, the present article detailed the diagnosis and treatment of this rare case and reviewed the relevant literature on MO, focusing on the clinical, pathological, and radiographic characteristics of MO. Notably, these investigations aimed to enhance clinicians' understanding of the disease and improve diagnostic accuracy.
骨化性肌炎（MO）是一种良性、自限性、非肿瘤性病变，累及骨骼肌或软组织，很少发生在头颈部。在临床实践中相对较少见，很难将特定病例与肌肉骨骼状况区分开来，这对临床诊断和治疗构成了独特的挑战。我们报告了一例 9 岁男孩患斜方肌局部非外伤性 MO。鉴于该病例的罕见性，本文详细介绍了该罕见病例的诊断和治疗，并回顾了关于 MO 的相关文献，重点介绍了 MO 的临床、病理和影像学特征。值得注意的是，这些研究旨在增强临床医生对该疾病的认识并提高诊断准确性。
