“…This bone formation is secondary ossification or osseous metaplasia. It may be seen in association with cutaneous tumours, scars, or inflammatory process (Barranco, 1971). Bone tissue formation was also seen in the present case and was considered to be secondary to stromal tissue of the tumour.…”

“…Cutaneous and subcutaneous ossification is a well‐recognized, although variable, feature of Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO), (21,22) but the children we evaluated had no other morphological manifestations of AHO or any evidence of hypocalcemia, pseudohypoparathyroidism, hypothyroidism, or hormone resistance (23–29) . Moreover, no family member of an affected child suffered from AHO or pseudohypoparathyroidism.…”

“…AHO is an autosomal dominant disorder of the skin, skeletal, and endocrine systems, with variable features that may include pseudohypoparathyroidism, multiple hormone resistance, obesity, brachydactyly (especially fourth and fifth metacarpals), short stature, round facies, and cutaneous and subcutaneous ossification (Table 1). (22–26,28,58–70) Although patients with POH do not show the developmental dysmorphologies and hormone resistance that commonly are associated with AHO, cutaneous and subcutaneous ossification of the skin in childhood is rare, and therefore the possibility that the heterotopic ossification in these two conditions might involve the same cellular pathways is a reasonable consideration.…”

“…E XTRASKELETAL OSSIFICATION (ectopic or heterotopic bone formation) occurs in several rare conditions including osteoma cutis, progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH), and Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) (1–2) . Ectopic ossification typically extends into deep muscle and fascia in POH, (3–7) whereas it is limited to superficial tissues in AHO (8–12) . Additionally, patients with POH do not have endocrinopathy or somatic features of AHO (3–7) .…”
