An ossifying thigh mass, initially suspected as myositis ossificans, was diagnosed as metastatic gastric cancer. This case highlights the importance of considering malignancy in unusual ossifying soft tissue lesions.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Myositis ossificans is a benign condition characterized by heterotopic ossification in muscle tissue.
  • Radiographic findings of myositis ossificans typically include a well-defined, ossified mass with peripheral ossification.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with an ossifying thigh mass without a history of trauma.
  • Initial imaging suggested myositis ossificans.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination revealed an ossifying soft tissue metastasis.
  • The primary tumor was identified as an occult gastric adenocarcinoma.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the necessity of including metastatic malignancy in the differential diagnosis for patients presenting with radiographic features mimicking myositis ossificans.
