Abstract
|
|
|
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a very rare genetic disorder, but is possible to diagnose with mass on neck or scalp in early neonate or child and accompanying characteristic congenital malformation of great toe. But because inappropriate treatment and complications from misdiagnosis may aggravate the progress of the disease, so the disorder require careful inspection for accurate diagnosis. We describe a case that was misdiagnosed properly and treated inappropriately and the natural history of the disease in adult.
