Abstract

Progressive ossifying fibrodysplasia is a rare genetic disorder of connective tissue. A 6-year-old boy sustained a fracture of the humerus and afterwards of the femur. The former fracture was treated closed and the latter with internal fixation. Both fractures healed with severe restriction of joint motion.
