Abstract EN
Heterotopic ossification is a rare phenomenon defined by the formation of bone within nonossifying soft tissues.
A rare variant of heterotopic ossification is heterotopic mesenteric ossification (HMO), in which there is involvement of the mesentery and surrounding intra-abdominal structures.
There are only four previously reported cases of HMO involving an ileostomy.
We present a case of HMO affecting an ileostomy which was discovered during elective stoma reversal in a 52-year-old male who required fecal diversion following perineal necrotizing fasciitis.
