Neurologic heterotopic ossification (NHO) is a pathological phenomenon that involves the formation of ectopic bone in soft tissues, which is associated with central nervous system injury. NHO may cause severe complications such as disorder of limb's activity, severe pain, and skin ulcer. The pathogenesis of NHO is not clear. In the past decades, there's better understanding of NHO pathogenesis, and potential predictive and therapeutic targets were found. The authors overview the NHO pathogenesis based on osteogenic factors, osteogenic precursor cells and microenvironments, soas to provide references for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
