Abstract

The article presents a case study of a 41-year-old woman diagnosed with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a rare genetic disorder that causes abnormal bone formation in muscles and connective tissues. It states that despite typically appearing in early childhood, this case is notable for its late onset, with the patient experiencing joint pain, stiffness, and ectopic bone formations observed through imaging.
