Heterotopic ossification is a rare but debilitating situation. It occurs in patients who have undergone paralysis and/or immobilization. Hip osteoma is one of the most frequent locations and is associated with a significant functional handicap. Its treatment is based on surgical resection, which is a risky surgery that is not devoid of complications such as infections, hematoma, and recurrence. We describe in this paper a new surgical technique that adds to the classic hip osteoma resection: guidance with a navigation system coupled to a 3D imaging tool. We performed this technique on two patients (three hips, one bilateral case). We think that this technique makes the surgery safer with fewer complications.

Background: The skull base ligaments have been extensively studied in the literature due to their clinical and surgical significance. The posterior petroclinoid fold (PPCNF) and petroclival ligament (PCVL) are two adjacent structures that have barely been studied and are frequently confused. The present study uses an innovative classification system to investigate the PPCNF and PCVL ossification patterns.

Objective: Investigate the clinical features and treatment outcomes of neonatal cephalohematoma and ossified cephalohematoma.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on the clinical features of 281 children with neonatal cephalohematoma and ossified cephalohematoma managed over the previous 10 years.
Results: Of the neonatal cephalohematomas, 75 underwent puncture and aspiration, while 98 neonatal ossified cephalohematomas were treated with neurosurgery without cranioplasty.

Bone morphogenetic proteins are essential for bone regeneration/fracture healing but can also induce heterotopic ossification (HO). Understanding accessory factors modulating BMP signaling would provide both a means of enhancing BMP-dependent regeneration while preventing HO. This study focuses on the ability of the collagen receptor, discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2), to regulate BMP activity.

Introduction: Diffuse pulmonary ossification (DPO) refers to the unusual formation of mature bone tissue within the lung parenchyma. It has been shown to be associated with a number of cardiac and chronic lung diseases. The relation between DPO and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has been shown in the literature.

Background: Intermuscular bones (IBs) are segmental intramembranous ossifications located within myosepta. They share similarities with tendon ossification, a form of heterotopic ossification (HO). The mechanisms underlying IB formation remain incompletely understood.
