title: [Myositis ossificans circumscripta following unusual brain injury].
abstract: The case reported here demonstrates the need to consider myositis ossificans after acute injury to the CNS, irrespective of the nature of the trauma. This latter by no means needs to be direct trauma--as the present case shows. When the condition does occur, the time needed for rehabilitation may be significantly lengthened.
