Grant Activity:
Discovering the mechanisms of neurogenic heterotopic ossifications following spinal cord injuries
Purpose:
A frequent complication of traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries is the formation of bones outside of the skeleton called heterotopic ossifications, particularly around joints such as the knee, hip, elbow or shoulder. They grow over months to become so large (up to 2 kg) that they block the affected joints, increasing pain, morbidity and dependence. This Idea grant is to understand why heterotopic ossifications form in patients with spinal cord injuries aiming to develop effective treatments.
