New Spontaneous Model of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report the first known example of spontaneous, naturally occurring fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) in a mammal. The Southeast Asian mouse deer of the genus _Tragulus_ (Artiodactyla: Tragulidae) have an osseous sheath covering the lower ...

Revision Distal Bicep Repair in the Setting of Heterotopic Ossification: Case Study

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Radiographic and intraoperative findings demonstrating heterotopic ossification following distal biceps tendon repair. ABSTRACT Heterotopic ossification (HO) following distal biceps tendon repair is an uncommon but potential complication. This may present pain, limited range of motion, or sensory changes due to nerve compression.

Response to comment on 'Palovarotene reduces heterotopic ossification in juvenile FOP mice but exhibits pronounced skeletal toxicity'

open access: yeseLife, 2019
We respond to concerns expressed by Pacifici and Shore (2019) about a recent paper (Lees-Shepard and Goldhamer, 2018a) in which we reported that the drug palovarotene can have severe side effects in a mouse model of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.
