Abstract

We report the MRI findings of a 22-year-old woman who complained of localized swelling in the left temporal region and right side of the face. MRI revealed left temporal and right masseter muscle hypertrophy, which to our knowledge has not been reported previously. The diagnosis of benign masticatory muscle hypertrophy was confirmed by biopsy.
