Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva complicated with post traumatic and infectious myositis ossificans in masseter: A case report
Although FOP has unique clinical manifestations, its diagnosis may be difficult because of its rarity. Gene analysis is the main standard for diagnosis, while patients with different genotypic variations may show different clinical symptoms. Therapeutic interventions are still supportive and preventive, and surgery is not recommended except under certain circumstances.
