Abstract

Fibrodisplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) is an extremely rare disorder of connective tissue. Progressive hete-rotophic ossifications of soft tissues may cause physical handicap.

There is no definite therapy in hand but early diagnosis, avoidance of pre¬cipitating factors, the patient and the family education and genetic counselling are the best therapeutic approaches.
