Abstract
An unusual case of heterotopic bone formation associated with a hernia thirteen months following gastrectomy is presented. Although the wound separation was considered superficial at the time of occurrence, it may well have been a factor in the bone and hernia formation. The persistently positive serology in spite of large amounts of antibiotics should also be considered in the etiology of this case.
