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

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
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.
