Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva

open access: yesAnnals of Saudi Medicine, 1999
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare disorder. The striking features of the disorder are the replacement of muscles, tendons, and aponeuroses by masses of bone, and the presence of certain skeletal abnormalities. In this report, we describe a woman who has literally grown up in bed since the age of three years.
