Methods The clinical manifestation the radiographic feature mutational analysis of the ACVR1 gene and the follow-up record were collected and analyzed in 4 children with FOP and the literatures relevant to FOP were reviewed. Results All four FOP cases had no family history and the ages of onset were before ten years old. Three of them had the malformation of great toes. There were had episodic soft tissue swellings in all four cases three of which had the occurrence of the multiple hetorotopic ossifications. The heterozygous missense mutation of ACVR1 (c.617g > A; R206H) was identified in one case that had the mutational analysis of the ACVR1 gene. Three cases developed ossifications after accepting invasive diagnostic procedures. Two cases were treated with Alendronate for more than one year and without any effect. Conclusions The majority of FOP patients have the congenital malformation of great toes. The early clinical manifestation of FOP is episodic soft tissue swellings and then the soft connective tissues are transformed into the mature bone. FOP can be diagnosed by the mutational analysis of ACVR1. There is no effective treatment for FOP at present. The focus of the management should be focus on early diagnosis as well as avoidance of deep soft tissue trauma and preventing all iatrogenic harm.
