The effect of EHDP medication was studied in 25 patients in whom heterotopic ossifications around the hip (19 cases) and elsewhere were resected. EHDP seemed to have a favorable effect on prevention of reossification and on function, particularly when ectopic ossifications were resected after total hip replacement. In all the patients, EHDP administration postponed mineralization of osteoid.Downloads
