“…The iliopsoas and the quadratus muscles are rarely reported as the involvement sites [1–3, 6–9]. Although it may have been very rarely reported, to our knowledge and review of the literature, we could not find any report about the reflected head of the rectus femoris to be involved as a region of heterotopic ossification.…”

Lamellar bone formation in an abnormal location is defined as heterotopic ossification. It commonly occurs around the hip joint and most often involves the abductor muscles. It is a benign condition; however, its etiology remains largely unknown. Most previously reported cases have been due to trauma or intramuscular hemorrhage. In this paper, we present a case of bilateral heterotopic ossification of the reflected head of rectus femoris muscle without antecedent trauma or any other known cause, as the first and unique case in the literature. She was treated by excision of the right symptomatic bony mass via a modified Smith-Petersen approach. Postoperatively, she received 75 mg indomethacin daily for six weeks. She was pain-free and obtained full range of motion 3 weeks after the first intervention.

“…In the skeletal muscles of mdx mice (dystrophin-deficient mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy) (Kikkawa et al, 2009; Mu et al, 2013), this debilitating condition may be induced by the inflammation associated with trauma. However, other causes have been reported (Thorseth, 1968; Sirvanci et al, 2004; McCulloch and Bush-Joseph, 2006; Bek et al, 2009; Kim and Choi, 2009; Chouhan et al, 2012; Kalenderer et al, 2012). …”

Pericytes are perivascular cells that envelop and make intimate connections with adjacent capillary endothelial cells. Recent studies show that they may have a profound impact in skeletal muscle regeneration, innervation, vessel formation, fibrosis, fat accumulation, and ectopic bone formation throughout life. In this review, we summarize and evaluate recent advances in our understanding of pericytes' influence on adult skeletal muscle pathophysiology. We also discuss how further elucidating their biology may offer new approaches to the treatment of conditions characterized by muscle wasting.

“…Traumatic myositis ossificans is a rare condition involving the iliopsoas muscle that can result in limitation of movement in the hip. 57 Myositis ossificans may be confused with and requires differentiation from a malignant soft tissue tumor. Myositis ossificans is usually self-limiting and resolves spontaneously.…”

Hip pain is a common condition with many etiologies, and the workup often includes imaging. The iliopsoas musculotendinous unit is becoming more frequently recognized as the culprit for hip pain, partially due to the increase in athletic activity in the general population as well as to the increased demand in professional sports. Iliopsoas tendon injuries are also seen in the elderly population and documented as occurring following total hip replacement. Iliopsoas diseases, often overlooked as a cause of hip pain, include tendinosis, snapping tendon, bursitis, tears, and avulsion injuries. This article reviews the normal magnetic resonance imaging and sonographic anatomy of the iliopsoas musculotendinous unit and the imaging characteristics of diseases that involve the iliopsoas musculotendinous unit. We review the causes of a snapping hip and the role of sonography in evaluating and guiding treatment of the snapping iliopsoas tendon.
