Intra-abdominal heterotopic ossification of the peritoneum following traumatic splenic rupture

Intra-abdominal heterotopic ossification of the peritoneum following traumatic splenic rupture

Intra-abdominal heterotopic ossification is extremely rare with only approximately 30 cases having been reported. While most reported cases have involved the mesentery, ossification of the peritoneum is even rarer. The pathogenesis remains undetermined but is generally considered a reactive process...
