Osseous Metaplasia Mimicking Long Bone in Intramuscular Vascular Malformation
We describe a case of intramuscular vascular malformation with extensive ossification within the posterior compartment muscles of leg which grossly mimicked long bone leading to equinus deformity of foot. Phleboliths and calcifications are characteristic of vascular malformations, while massive ossification is rare. To our knowledge, no extensive ossified vascular malformation within the leg mu...

Osseous metaplasia should be kept in mind as a rare cause of failure to conceive, even in patients with primary infertility. We report a case of osseous metaplasia of the endometrium as a cause of primary infertility and present a literature review. The condition may be more common than expected or generally accepted, and should be kept in mind even in patients with primary infertility. Hystero...
متن کاملColorectal carcinoma with osseous metaplasia
Osseous metaplasia (OM) is rarely observed in colorectal cancer (incidence < 0.4% in rectal cancer), where it has a non-specific clinical presentation and unknown pathogenesis. Here, we report three cases of colorectal carcinoma with OM and propose a new hypothesis. All three patients (two males and one female) were Chinese and had different sites of colorectal carcinoma with OM: rectum, sigmoi...
متن کاملOsseous metaplasia in a kidney allograft.
Osseous metaplasia is defined by the presence of heterotopic normal bone tissue in a soft tissue. The bone matrix is associated with osteoblasts, osteoclasts, adipocytes and haematopoietic stem cells. Osseous metaplasia pathophysiology is not well known, but many factors have been incriminated including chronic inflammation and chronic ischaemia. We describe the second case of osseous metaplasi...
متن کاملOsseous metaplasia in a gastric adenomatous polyp.
Heterotopic bone is rarely found in the gastrointestinal tract. In the majority of reported cases, it was associatedwith malignant lesions [1,2], Peutz–Jeghers syndrome [3], and more rarely with inflammatory colonic polyps [4]. On reviewing the literature, we found only two cases of metaplastic bone accompanying hyperplastic gastric mucosa [5,6], and no case report of osseous metaplasia in gast...
