Heterotopic ossification reverse shoulder prosthesis
Updates to Case Attributes
Heterotopic ossifications are due to bone metaplasia in soft tissues. The appearance of heterotopicHeterotopic ossifications can occur as a result of central nervous system lesions (traumatic brain injuries and spinal injuries), post-surgical operations (prosthesis), or direct traumatic events.They mainly develop on muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia, while they rarely affect the skin and organs.May occurTiming may be weeks or months after prosthetic surgery.Depending on the size of the calcification outbreaks they can cause pain or limit the mobility of the joint.
Frequent post-operative prevention is the administrationCase courtesy of antirheumatic drugs for a week. Thus the risk of heterotopic ossification is greatly reduced.
