    This case report details myositis ossificans, a rare condition causing bone formation in muscles. The study highlights genetic factors and novel observations in a young male patient.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Genetics
    • Orthopedics
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Myositis ossificans is a benign condition characterized by heterotopic ossification in skeletal muscle.
    • Genetic factors are implicated in the pathogenesis of myositis ossificans.

    Observation:

    • A 28-year-old male presented with congenital ossification of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.
    • Progressive ossification affected thighs, abdominal, and facial muscles.
    • Congenital malformations were noted, suggesting a hereditary basis.

    Findings:

    • Radiographic, histological, and biochemical findings were consistent with myositis ossificans.
    • Facial muscle and cardiac involvement were previously unreported.
    • The patient experienced relief with EHDB therapy.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known clinical spectrum of myositis ossificans, including facial and cardiac involvement.
    • Heredity plays a significant role in the disease's development.
    • EHDB therapy shows potential prophylactic value against postoperative heterotopic ossification.
