Definition/Description

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva is a rare, genetic disorder than transforms ligaments, muscles and tendons into bone outside the skeleton that impairs movement.

Prevalence

  • 1 in every 2 million people are diagnosed with Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Porgressiva
  • Nearly 90% of the time it is misdiagnosed and mismanaged. (Lakkrieddy)
  • 67% undergo invasive procedures for diagnosis and treatment
  • More than 50% end up with lifelong disabilities
  • Mostly occurs in children

Characteristics/Clinical Presentation

  • Congenital hallux valgus with microdactyly and monophalangeal great toe are early signs 
  • Hearing impairments in approximately 50% of patients     
  • Pneumonia and right sided heart failure
  • Controversial malformations
  • Ossification of intercostal muscles
  • Kyphoscoliosis and lordosis
  • Severe weight loss
  • Torticollis
  • TMJ complications
  • Acute flare-ups due to: intramuscular immunizations, mandibular blocks for dental work, muscle fatigue, blunt muscle trauma from bumps, bruises, falls, influenza-like viral illnesses


Medications

For acute flare-ups:

  • short term high does corticosteroids
  • NSAIDS
  • Biophosphonates
  • Radiotherapy 

Diagnostic Tests/Lab Tests/Lab Values

Blood Samples

Computed Tomography

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Bone Scans

Etiology/Causes

  • Genetic R206H mutation of the ACVR1 gene
  • ACVR1 gene is a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type1 receptor signaling endochondral ossification
  • R206H mutation leads to an increase in enhanced BMP signaling
  • Confirmation of a heterozygous gene mutation of the ACVR1 gene

Systemic Involvement

Cardiopulmonary system

  • Lungs affected caused by thoracic insufficiencies
  • Restrictive pulmonary diseases


Nervous system

  • Middle ear ossifications
  • Hearing impairments 

Medical Management (current best evidence)

Medications 

  • Reduces the pain and severity of flare-ups

Surgical release of joint contractures

  • Usually unsuccessful

Osteotomy of heterotropic bone

  • Mobilizes joints
  • Usually counterproductive because new heterotrophic ossificans can form at the site

Repositioned surgically

  • Improves the patients overall functional status
  • Rare


Ultimately, there is not much that can be done to cure this disease.

Physical Therapy Management (current best evidence)

  • Maintain ROM in the affected joints
  • Enhance the ease of ADL’s
  • Make their functional activities as easy as possible
  • Taping
  • Stretching
  • Positioning
  • Education to relieve contractures

Differential Diagnosis

Myositis Ossificans
Heterotropic Ossificans
Juvenile Fibromatosis
Lymphoedema
Soft tissue sarcomas
