Osteogenesis Imperfecta

Annual Review of Medicine, 1992
Recent biochemical, linkage, and molecular genetic studies have demonstrated that, in almost every instance, osteogenesis imperfecta results from mutations in the genes that encode the chains of type I collagen. Such studies have done much to improve our understanding of the molecular basis of brittle bone disease, and have provided significant inroads

Osteogenesis imperfecta and odontogenesis imperfecta

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1949
Abstract A review of the pertinent literature is presented. Conspicuous by its absence is any record of a fracture of a mandible or maxilla. A family of 13, 5 members of which are afflicted with osteogenesis imperfecta and 2 spontaneous recent mutations, are reported.

Osteogenesis Imperfecta

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a heterogenous group of inherited conditions arising from a variety of biochemical and morphological collagen defects. The broad manifestations of abnormalities in bones, teeth, scleri, ligaments, and other collagen-containing tissues point to the heterogeneity of the condition.

Osteogenesis Imperfecta

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1973
Sixteen patients, eight severely affected (osteogenesis imperfecta congenita), seven moderately (osteogenesis imperfecta tarda), and one mildly (no bone deformity) had iliac-crest biopsy specimens analyzed quantitatively to determine number of osteocytes, fractional areas of bone, length of resorption surface, and other histological parameters per area

Osteogenesis imperfecta in a weightlifter

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2002
To discuss the case of a 42-yr-old weightlifter with osteogenesis imperfecta.The patient had bilateral acute elbow pain and a previous history of more than 35 fractures of the spine and extremities.There is no current treatment for osteogenesis imperfecta. Treatment objectives were designed to minimize pain, improve range of motion, and decrease stress

Osteogenesis Imperfecta in the Neonate

Advances in Neonatal Care, 2008
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a rare heterozygous disorder of collagen production. It is characterized by osteopenia, blue sclera, bone deformities, and progressive hearing loss. Some infants are diagnosed prenatally, whereas others are diagnosed much later in life.

OSTEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA CONGENITA

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1971
SynopsisOsteogenesis imperfecta congenita is a very rare condition. Among 184,311 deliveries over a 5 year period (1965–1969) there were encountered only 3 cases which demonstrated varying degrees of severity of the condition.The incidence, pathological and genetic bases, diagnosis and management of osteogenesis imperfecta congenita are discussed.

The Stapes In Osteogenesis Imperfecta

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1968
Referring to cases of osteogenesis imperfecta presented by Opheim in the present issue, the authors describe the histological findings in the stapes of a newborn suffering from this disease. It is demonstrated that the actual stapes was abnormal, its crura being fragile and incomplete, whereas the footplate and its surroundings were normal, in contrast

Classification of osteogenesis imperfecta

Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift, 2015
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an extremely heterogeneous group of heritable connective tissue disorders. Most of the affected patients carry autosomal dominant mutations in the genes encoding for collagen type I, the most abundant protein of the bone extracellular matrix.

The ear in osteogenesis imperfecta

The Laryngoscope, 1962
AbstractA review of the pertinent historical, clinical, pathological and otologic features of osteogenesis imperfecta is presented. A study of the genetic aspects of the Van der Hoeve Syndrome supports the view that the disease results from one gene or gene complex with wide variations in expressivity.
