Osteopetrosis is a rare sclerosing inherited dysplasia of bone caused by the deficient function of osteoclasts. At first the disease was divided into the severe infantile recessive and the more benign autosomal dominant types, but clinical differences and progress in genetic understanding have now enabled identification of two distinct autosomal ...

Osteopetrosis is a rare disease that occurs when a child has an unequal balance between new bone growth and elimination of old bone. Children with this entity are able to make new bone tissue, but are not able to break down and eliminate old bones, which is essential for normal bone growth. These thickened and enlarged bones are very weak.

Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2018
The term osteopetrosis refers to a group of rare skeletal diseases sharing the hallmark of a generalized increase in bone density owing to a defect in bone resorption. Osteopetrosis is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, and a precise molecular classification is relevant for prognosis and treatment. Here, we review recent data on the pathogenesis

Imaging investigations are critical in the management of children with suspected and confirmed osteopetrosis. In severe cases, imaging can provide rapid confirmation of the diagnosis, whilst in milder cases, imaging findings may be the first or only indicators of the disease.

Spondylolysis in osteopetrosis
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1988We report the occurrence of spondylolysis and/or spondylolisthesis of the lumbar vertebrae in five patients with osteopetrosis, four of them having multiple lesions. The case histories indicate that spondylolysis had developed in the pathological bone as a result of increased stress and that it is an acquired lesion.

Dacryocystorhinostomy in Osteopetrosis
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1991ABSTRACT Osteopetrosis is a rare congenital disorder of bone metabolism characterized by generalized sclerotic bone resulting from osteoclast dysfunction. There are several ocular manifestations, one of which is nasolacrimal duct obstruction from osteosclerosis of the nasolacrimal foramen.

A 19-year-old male with a bone disease that predisposes to pathological fractures was involved in an automobile accident. Although the physician must always look for multiple injuries in any trauma patient, this case illustrates that in the patient with bone disease, the probability of multiple fractures is extremely high. The differential diagnosis of

Osteopetrosis is commonly spoken of as "marble bones"; recently it was referred to as "chalky bones." 1 The condition was first described by Albers-Schonberg 2 in 1904, and it is usually referred to by his name. Reviews of cases may be found in articles by Karshner, 3 Davis, 4 and Alexander.

A case of a 3 1/2-year-old female with benign osteopetrosis is presented. There was radiographic evidence of previous fetal sclerosis of bone yielding a "bone-within-a-bone" appearance, but on radiophosphate imaging this fetal sclerosis was not hyperactive and could not be differentiated from the normal diaphysis surrounding it.
