Free bone fragments are associated with the development of heterotopic ossification after hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture: a retrospective observational study
The presence of free bone fragments immediately after surgery may be significantly associated with the development of HO. Therefore, it is necessary to sufficiently remove such fragments during surgery because they may trigger HO.
