Abstract

Soft tissue calcifications and ossifications at distant sites have been reported as a sequel to head injuries or spinal cord injuries. They are usually noticed many months after injury, when once such bedridden patients try to be ambulatory, it rarely goes. Thus, they are an uncommon, disturbing and avoidable complication in patients who have injuries to central nervous system. Therefore, this article emphasizes on pathology, treatment options and finally, the preventive aspects.

Keywords: Central nervous system; Heterotopic ossification; Injury; Range of motion
