It was realized that the size, depth and healing time of burn wounds were related to heterotopic ossification; the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, radiation therapy, and their combination therapy can be used for the prevention of heterotopic ossification; surgery is an effective means of treating heterotopic ossification.
