Relatively Low Rate of Heterotopic Ossification Following Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. J Am Acad Orthop Surg Glob Res Rev 2021; 5:01979360-202107000-00012.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heterotopic ossification (HO) is abnormal growth of ectopic bone and negatively affects the outcomes after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to characterize the prevalence and severity of HO after primary TKA. METHODS A systematic review of the literature was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Patient demographics, publication year, and HO prevalence after a primary TKA were recorded. A meta-analysis was performed to determine the overall prevalence of HO formation, and a subanalysis compared the studies published in different timeframes to determine whether a temporal effect exists for HO prevalence. RESULTS Two thousand nine hundred eighty-eight patients underwent primary TKA across the included studies. Fourteen percent of patients (9% to 20%; I2: 93.68%) developed HO postoperatively during a mean follow-up of 40.1 months (11 to 108 months). HO rates seemed to decrease in studies published in more recent years, with a pooled HO prevalence of 5% (0% to 13%; I2: 92.26%) among studies published in the past 15 years compared with 18% (12% to 25%; I2: 92.49%) among studies published before then. CONCLUSION Although studies reported a relatively low overall rate of HO after a primary TKA, the absence of a single, standardized classification system precludes the comparisons of HO severity between studies. Overall, HO prevalence seems to have decreased over time, likely reflecting the changes in perioperative medication protocols.

Abstract
Heterotopic ossification (HO) manifests as bone development in the skeletal muscles and surrounding soft tissues. It can be caused by injury, surgery, or may have a genetic background. In each case, its development might differ, and depending on the age, sex, and patient's conditions, it could lead to a more or a less severe outcome. In the case of the injury or surgery provoked ossification development, it could be, to some extent, prevented by treatments. As far as genetic disorders are concerned, such prevention approaches are highly limited. Many lines of evidence point to the inflammatory process and abnormalities in the bone morphogenetic factor signaling pathway as the molecular and cellular backgrounds for HO development. However, the clear targets allowing the design of treatments preventing or lowering HO have not been identified yet. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on HO types, its symptoms, and possible ways of prevention and treatment. We also describe the molecules and cells in which abnormal function could lead to HO development. We emphasize the studies involving animal models of HO as being of great importance for understanding and future designing of the tools to counteract this pathology.
