Abstract

Among 26 children with soft tissue ossification 5 patients with pseudomalignant heterotopic ossification were analysed. All patients underwent surgery and were cured. Authors’ presentation emphasizes the importance of the performance of sparing operation after ossification «maturation» as well as local application of steroids, appropriate use of immobilization and accurate rehabilitation.

There are numerous dilated and full-blooded vessels in the spaces between the beams (stained with hematoxylin and eosin, uv. 60); b - immature, gradually calcifying bone beams. Histiocytes and fibroblasts are visible in the connective tissue of the spaces between the beams (stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Mag. 160).
