Isolated dermal ossification is present in her father and younger sister suggesting an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with variable expressivity or possible somatic mosaicism. This report of a family with progressive osseous heteroplasia contributes to the understanding of this uncommon genetic disorder, which must be distinguished from fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva and Albright’s hereditary osteodystrophy. The paucity of familial cases of progressive osseous heteroplasia currently limits the use of a genome-wide linkage analysis, but linkage exclusion analysis with promising candidate genes is a possibility.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByCase Report: Two Monochorionic Twins With a Critically Different Course of Progressive Osseous Heteroplasia23 June 2021 | Frontiers in Pediatrics, Vol. 9Genetic and Acquired Heterotopic Ossification: A Translational Tale of Mice and Men14 December 2020 | Biomedicines, Vol. 8, No. 12Fibrodysplasie ossifiante progressive et hétéroplasie ossifiante progressiveRevue du Rhumatisme Monographies, Vol. 86, No. 1Diagnosis and management of pseudohypoparathyroidism and related disorders: first international Consensus Statement29 June 2018 | Nature Reviews Endocrinology, Vol. 14, No. 8Progressive osseous heteroplasia, as an isolated entity or overlapping with Albright hereditary osteodystrophyJournal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, Vol. 28, No. 7-8Progressive Osseous Heteroplasia: A Model for the Imprinting Effects of GNAS Inactivating Mutations in HumansThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, Vol. 95, No. 6PProgressive Osseous Heteroplasia.
