Abstract

Background

Heterotopic Ossification (HO) is a common condition referring to ectopic bone formation in soft tissues. It has two major etiologies, acquired (more common) and genetic. The acquired form is closely related to tissue trauma. The exact pathogenesis of this disease remains unclear; however, there is ongoing research in prophylactic and therapeutic treatments that is promising.

Conclusions

Due to HO potential to cause disability, it is so important to differentiate it from other causes in order to establish the best possible management.
