“…The outcomes after surgical correction of thoracolumbar spinal deformity and scoliosis were generally poor and resulted in recurrence and progression of the deformity and heterotopic ossifi cation. 77 However, favorable surgical outcomes have been described in 1 case series of patients with FOP and life-threatening chinon-chest cervical spine deformity. 78 Figure 5 shows an FOP patient who developed chin-on-chest cervical spine deformity and required cervical osteotomies and fusion with halo stabilization.…”

“…[14][15][16] Es explicable que estos pacientes fallezcan como resultado de procesos infecciosos respiratorios, insuficiencia cardiaca, asfixia y desnutrición. 4,17,18 La mutación genética causante de la fibrodisplasia osificante progresiva se ha descrito como una sustitución de un nucleótido único recurrente causando una mutación antisentido en el codón 206 (c.617G>A; R206H) en el dominio de activación de la glicina-serina del receptor del gen que codifica la activina IA (ACVR1), un receptor de proteína morfogenética ósea de tipo 1.…”

“…Numerous previous reports have described osteotomy techniques for the lumbar spine that are commonly applied in an analogous fashion to the cervical spine, 15,17,36,40 and several of these would be classified within the Grade 2 osteotomy category. These include the Smith-Petersen osteotomy, 54 which involves wide resection of the posterior elements, including the lamina and bilateral facets, and, as initially described, was applied to multiple levels through previously fused facets in upper levels of the lumbar spine.…”
