ACVR1 mutation and Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva in Chinese children [PDF]
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) is a rare autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder characterized by congenital great toes malformation and progressive heterotopic osteogenesis leading to progressive debilitating ankylosis of the body.

Atypical Presentation and Management of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva [PDF]
We report a case of an 18-year-old woman, with bilateral acute inflammatory pain on the hip area, during the premenstrual period, and progressive increase in volume and rigidity of both hips. Bilateral exuberant soft tissue calcifications were present on
