Frontometaphyseal dysplasia (FMD) is a progressive sclerosing skeletal dysplasia affecting the long bones and skull. The cause of FMD in some individuals is mutations in the X-linked gene, FLNA. Recently, it has been reported that mutations in MAP3K7 that alter the activity of the TAK1 signaling complex cause FMD.
