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 surrounding intra‐abdominal structures.

ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐

ABSTRACT Objectives In bioarchaeology, the concepts of resilience and frailty, and their quantification through indices, have gathered significant attention. This study is the first to apply, evaluate, and compare skeletal frailty indices and aims to trace frailty over time while identifying methodological challenges in their use on a sample ...

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a rare genetic disorder caused by ACVR1 mutations, leads to soft tissue ossification. Recent advancements, including food and drug administration‐approved palovarotene, show promise despite safety concerns. Therapies like tofacitinib and imatinib demonstrate potential, but larger, controlled trials are essential ...

Calcinosis Universalis of the Elbow: A Rare Case with Classical Presentation
Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM) is a rare autoimmune disease in children and adolescents. In these patients calcinosis might be the most characteristic symptom. However there are only few reported cases of intramuscular calcinosis in Dermatomyositis. We report a case of calcinosis universalis (CU) of the elbow in JDM successfully treated with broaching.
