Abstract
Fracture at the lower end of the humerus being the rare form of fracture among middle aged adults but if it occurs most common type of fracture at this site is comminuted fracture where the bones are broken into pieces which results dislocation and malunion or nonunion. Due to lack of attention to the injury at the elbow site the fracture bone goes for improper position and creates considerable impairment called as Malunion. “Myositis ossificans traumatica” is a term used to describe ossification that is formed at the site of any trauma. In this case, calcifications has occurred at the site of injured muscle and hence presenting a rare case of distal humerus fracture with progressive myositis ossificans in a middle aged adult male.
