Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2008•ncbi.nlm.nih.govWe report a case of true trilineage haematopoiesis in an excised area of heterotopic
ossification from an upper mid-line laparotomy scar. Heterotopic ossification is a rare
complication of abdominal surgery and usually occurs when upper mid-line incisions are
utilised. Whereas cases of heterotopic ossification in abdominal incisions are not
exceedingly rare, true trilineage haematopoiesis in such an area of heterotopic ossification,
to our knowledge, has only been previously reported once in the English literature.

Abstract
We report a case of true trilineage haematopoiesis in an excised area of heterotopic ossification from an upper mid-line laparotomy scar. Heterotopic ossification is a rare complication of abdominal surgery and usually occurs when upper mid-line incisions are utilised. Whereas cases of heterotopic ossification in abdominal incisions are not exceedingly rare, true trilineage haematopoiesis in such an area of heterotopic ossification, to our knowledge, has only been previously reported once in the English literature.
