Abstract
Vague abdominal pain after cardiac surgery was caused by ectopic ossification in the distal part of sternotomy. The rarity of this complication (one case seen in recent years, operation volume: 1200 cases/year) prompted us to review the literature, where only 6 cases are described. Diagnostic problems and therapy are discussed.
