Proliferative myositis is a rare pseudosarcomatous inflammatory process. Radiological diagnosis of self-limiting proliferative myositis helps direct appropriate clinical management and avoiding unnecessary surgical excision. We present the ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings in a case of proliferative myositis. In this case, malignancy was suspected, an...
