Surgical Management of Shoulder Heterotopic Ossification
The formation of heterotopic ossification around the shoulder is a rare but potentially debilitating condition. It is found most commonly around the hip and is usually associated with an inciting event such as trauma, burn, previous surgery, or traumatic

Early detection of heterotopic ossification using near‐infrared optical imaging reveals dynamic turnover and progression of mineralization following Achilles tenotomy and burn injury [PDF]
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is the abnormal formation of bone in soft tissue. Current diagnostics have low sensitivity or specificity to incremental progression of mineralization, especially at early time points.

Heterotopic ossification of tendon and ligament [PDF]
AbstractMuch of the similarities of the tissue characteristics, pathologies and mechanisms of heterotopic ossification (HO) formation are shared between HO of tendon and ligament (HOTL). Unmet need and no effective treatment has been developed for HOTL, primarily attributable to poor understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms.

Extensive Circumferential Heterotopic Ossification Discovered at the Base of a Loop Ileostomy
Heterotopic ossification is a rare phenomenon defined by the formation of bone within nonossifying soft tissues. A rare variant of heterotopic ossification is heterotopic mesenteric ossification (HMO), in which there is involvement of the mesentery and ...
