Abstract (2. Language):
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic disorder that characterized by low bone mass and increased bone fragility. The prevalence of OI is estimated as 1 in 20 000 births. In the majority of cases, diagnosis of OI is easy on the basis of clinical and radiological findings. Physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and orthopaedic sugery are the mainstay of treatment for patients with OI. In this report, we present a newborn who was diagnosed as OI which is a rare disorder in childhood with clinical and laboratory findings such as triangular face, dark sklera and multiple fractures, bone deformities, hyperplastic callus formation on x-rays on postnatal first day of life, to discuss new treatment methods and recent literature.
