[Heterotopic mesenteric ossification. Description of a case].
We describe a case of heterotopic mesenteric ossification presented in a 25 year-old male who underwent laparotomy for a fire-gun injury. Two weeks later he experienced small bowel obstruction and for this reason he has been operated five times with removal of segments of small bowel. Now, nine months later, he needs ileostomy to avoid another obstruction.
