Bridging Myositis Ossificans After Supracondylar Humeral Fracture in a Child A Case Report

Myositis ossificans is an uncommon complication of trauma and surgery, defined as ossifying changes in a non-osseous tissue such as muscles. It happens after tissue injury, with or without fractures. When myositis ossificans occurs around a joint, it can cause ankylosis, leading to complete dysfunction of the joint. Though it has been described in most parts of the body, bridging myositis ossificans involving the elbow joint were scarcely reported.
