• short broad femoral neck
• short broad femoral neck
• 13 of 27 mice exhibit shortened first metatarsal with a single or delta-shaped proximal phalanx
• commonly in the proximal medial tibias, but also in the humerus and femur
• some mice exhibit fusion of the posterior facet joints of the subaxial cervical vertebrae
• malformation of costovertebral joints and ribs
• early degenerative joint disease
• malformation of costovertebral joints
• fusion of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae
• in skeletal muscles
• cardiotoxin-induced skeletal muscle injury triggers heterotropic ossification
• extraskeletal bone formation occurs by an endochondral process
• ankylosed joints at 6 to 8 weeks

cellular
• in degenerating muscle and connective tissue with abundant immune cell infiltration prior to ossified lesion formation

homeostasis/metabolism
• swelling in soft tissue

immune system
• inflammatory response followed by fibroproliferation in degenerating muscle and connective tissue
