title: Indomethacin-induced postoperative psychosis.
abstract: Indomethacin is used commonly for the prevention of postoperatively heterotopic ossification. There have been 3 reports in the pharmacologic literature of indomethacin-induced psychosis. We describe a case of indomethacin-induced psychosis in a patient in whom indomethacin was used for the prevention of postoperative heterotopic ossification after bilateral uncemented total hip replacements.
