Application of a mechanobiological algorithm to investigate mechanical mediation of heterotopic bone in trans-femoral amputees

Heterotopic ossification (HO) is the process of bone formation in tissues that are not usually osseous. It occurs in 60% of those with blast-related amputations. HO can result in reduced range of motion, pain, nerve impingement and can affect prosthesis fitting and is caused by a combination of mech...
