A Retinoid Antagonist Attenuates Bone Growth Inhibition Caused by Growth Plate Injury in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 43, Issue 10, Page 1724-1735, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Growth plate injury, which may trigger growth plate fusion or arrest, is a common occurrence in pediatric orthopaedics that can lead to angulation of the limb and limb length discrepancy. Growth plate injuries are currently treated palliatively, with surgical intervention when severe limb length discrepancy or angulation is found during follow‐

Activin-dependent signaling in fibro/adipogenic progenitors causes fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a severe disorder characterized by heterotopic ossification, and is caused by mutations in ACVR1. Here, the authors show that expression of mutant ACVR1 in fibro/adipogenic progenitors recapitulates disease ...

Diagnosis of Pediatric Myositis Ossificans Based on Cytomorphology and Molecular Analysis From FNAB Sample: A Case Report

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page E138-E143, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐

Post‐COVID‐19 Exacerbation of a Stable Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare, benign fibro‐osseous lesion characterized by replacement of normal bone with extensive fibrous stroma due to abnormalities in osteoblast differentiation. After puberty and during adulthood, FD lesions usually become quiescent. However, some cases show signs of regrowth and reactivation.
