Plain radiographic diagnosis of “osteogenesis imperfecta congenita” (Type III) in a 2-year-old boy

Abstract

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), or brittle bone disease, is a rare disorder with congenital bone fragility caused by mutations in the genes. This case is reported because of its rarity and paucity in the literature in Nigeria. Available data on OI in Black African children are limited.
