Abstrakt: Case: A 32-year-old healthy woman tore her right anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and underwent reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft. Twelve weeks postoperatively, she had anterior thigh pain limiting knee flexion and a palpable mass in the anterior thigh. Imaging revealed a calcified mass near the graft site, concerning for heterotopic ossification (HO). After maturation of the heterotopic bone, she underwent debridement and HO removal.
Conclusion: This is a case of HO at the quadriceps tendon autograft site after ACL reconstruction. When counseling patients, clinicians should be mindful of this possible complication and its treatment.
