*Injury at site.
*May be seen in the context of tetraplegia.
 
Clinical:<ref name=pmid21611960/>
*+/-Joint stiffness.
*+/-Swelling.
*+/-Pain.
 
===Microscopic===
Features:
*[[Lamellar bone]] - has layering/lines (best seen with polarized light).
*+/-Skeletal muscle (within the marrow space).
 
DDx:
*[[Myositis ossificans]] - inflammation, cellular.
*[[Osteosarcoma]], extraskeletal.
*[[Osteochrondroma]] - at joint, has cartilage.{{fact}}
 
===Sign out===
<pre>
Lesion, Distal Phalanx of Right Little Finger, Excision:
- Dermal ossification without cartilage in benign skin with a thick keratin layer.
- NEGATIVE for evidence of malignancy.
</pre>
 
====Block letters====
<pre>
LESION ("HETEROTOPIC OSSIFICATION"), RIGHT FEMUR, EXCISION:
- BONE -- CONSISTENT WITH MUSCLE HETEROTOPIC OSSIFICATION.
- NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.
</pre>
 
====Micro====
The sections show laminar bone with a marrow space containing adipose tissue and benign skeletal muscle. The osteocytes show no nuclear atypia. No mitotic activity is appreciated.
