Schnitzler syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by monoclonal IgM gammopathy, urticaria, recurrent fever, evidence of inflammation, bone pain, and arthralgia. We present the case of a patient affected by Schnitzler syndrome who developed Della Valle type C heterotopic ossification after total hip arthroplasty. A relationship between the underlying syndrome and the considerable heterotopic ossification observed is compatible with the patient's clinical history and incidental findings. We suggest prophylaxis against heterotopic ossification when performing hip arthroplasty on patients with Schnitzler syndrome.
施尼茨勒综合征是一种罕见的疾病，其特征为单克隆IgM丙种球蛋白病、荨麻疹、反复发热、炎症迹象、骨痛和关节痛。我们报告一例施尼茨勒综合征患者的病例，该患者在全髋关节置换术后发生了德拉瓦莱C型异位骨化。潜在综合征与观察到的大量异位骨化之间的关系与患者的临床病史和偶然发现相符。我们建议在对施尼茨勒综合征患者进行髋关节置换术时预防异位骨化。
