Abstract
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an extremely rare autosomal dominant disorder having variable expressivity with complete penetrance. FOP incidence has been estimated to be 1 per 2 million. FOP caused by mutations in ACVR1 gene encoding bone morphogenetic protein type-1 receptor. To date, 15 types of mutations have been reported. The majority of cases were determined to be the rsult of a new mutation occuring sporadically. Here we report a 20 years old girl who's suffering FOP for 11 years.
