Abstract

13. Orthopedics. 2021 Jan 1;44(1):10-16. doi: 10.3928/01477447-20201119-03. Epub 2020 Nov 25. Heterotopic Ossification After Elbow Fractures. Herman ZJ, Edelman DG, Ilyas AM. Heterotopic ossification (HO), a complication after surgical repair of elbow fractures, can result in pain, decreased range of motion, or complete ankylosis of the joint. This updated systematic review focused on compiling incidence and prevalence rates of HO after surgical repair of various types of elbow fractures. The overall incidence of HO after surgical repair was calculated to be 28.7%, a result comparable with rates in the literature. Further analysis suggested that the odds of having HO may be less after distal humerus fractures than after proximal radius fractures, terrible triad injuries, and elbow fractures/dislocations.
