Core Tip	In this case report, we report a 28-year-old female with myositis ossificans. The patient had an ulnar humerus fracture early in the course of the disease, and after internal fixation treatment, the wrong rehabilitation method led to the occurrence of myositis ossificans. In this operation, we normalized the rehabilitation plan of the patient by the passive pulling force of Ilizarov technology, which made no recurrence after the removal of myositis ossificans, and achieved a good effect.
