Managing this condition can be challenging. The available evidence regarding the effectiveness of conservative management, such as physical therapy and interpositional materials, is inconclusive based on the literature. Therefore, the preferred treatment for MOT is the surgical excision of the osseous mass. Under general anesthesia, the calcified muscle is completely removed. Surgical excision often leads to remission, although some patients may experience recurrent episodes.
