A Novel Radiographic Finding of Intracapsular Heterotopic Ossification: A Report of Two Cases

Symptomatic heterotopic ossification (HO) is a complication of hip arthroscopy that occurs in less than 1% of cases. To our knowledge, there are no reported cases of symptomatic intracapsular HO. We present 2 patients with a radiographic finding associated with intracapsular HO. Both patients underw...

Sumario:Symptomatic heterotopic ossification (HO) is a complication of hip arthroscopy that occurs in less than 1% of cases. To our knowledge, there are no reported cases of symptomatic intracapsular HO. We present 2 patients with a radiographic finding associated with intracapsular HO. Both patients underwent revision hip arthroscopy and required capsular reconstruction due to void of the iliofemoral ligament following excision of HO. We believe this radiographic finding may be useful to hip preservationists as it may be associated with capsular deficiency necessitating capsular reconstruction upon revision hip arthroscopy.
