Gabriela Păduraru, 16 University st., Iasi, , Romania gaby_spulber@yahoo.com ABSTRACT Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a group of rare congenital conditions characterized mainly by bone brittleness secondary to mutations in the genes encoding collagen. The medical history together with a clinical examination in detail of the fractures is highly important in directing the diagnosis towards OI. The authors present an OI case diagnosed in an 11-years old patient with a history of multiple fractures, with bone deformations, which associates a rare congenital malformation bilateral radioulnar synostosis. This case needs multidisciplinary monitoring (pediatric, orthopaedic, genetic, psychologic). Key words: osteogenesis imperfecta, congenital radioulnar synostosis, child. INTRODUCTION Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogenic group of conditions determined by defects in the quantity and quality production in the collagen synthesis. The genetic alteration of the conjunctive tissue is determined by mutations in the genes COL1A1 and COL1A2, which encode the chains alpha1 and alpha2 and collagen type 1 (1, 2).It is one of the most frequent bone dysplasias with a prevalence of 1/10,000 to 1/20,000 births (2). It is an intra-family transmitted, both autosomal dominant and recessive disease affecting equally genders, all races and all ethnic groups. The clinical expression of the disease varies depending on the type of OI and on the patient s age and is characterised by osteoporosis, bone brittleness, bone deformations, joint hypermobility, dentinogenesis imperfecta, blue sclerae, often deafness (usually emerging in adulthood). Currently, there are seven types of OI, whose severity varies from moderate to very severe, with perinatal mortality (3). The variety of the clinical picture (Table 1) depends on the location of the mutations in the collagen gene, and it can be moderate (OI type 1), lethal (OI type 2), with severe bone deformations (OI type 3) or with moderate bone deformations (OI type 4) (3, 4). 55
2 Type Severity Characteristics I Mild Normal height, lack of bone deformations or mild deformations, vertebral fractures, blue sclerae, normal walk II Perinatal mortality Multiple fractures III Severe Small height, scoliosis, triangular face, grey sclerae, difficult supported walk IV Moderate Small height, scoliosis, triangular face, white sclerae, difficult supported walk V Moderate Medium height, abnormal callus, ossification of the interosseous membrane of the forearm and lower limbs, radioulnar synostosis, white sclerae VI Moderate severe Medium height, frequent fractures, while sclerae VII Moderate Small height, coxa vara, anomalies of the humerus and femur, white sclerae Table 1. Classification of the types of osteogenesis imperfect CLINICAL CASE A female patient, 11 years and 3 months old, is admitted in the pediatric ward for the supplementation of investigations in view of identifying the etiology of her osteomuscular disorder. Family history: parents and siblings apparently healthy, without consanguinity relations, mother 5 pregnancies, 3 births (2 abortions on request). Obstetrical history: the second child coming from a non-monitored pregnancy with physiological evolution, natural birth at 39 weeks of pregnancy, with BW=2900g, H=54cm, APGAR 8, no fetal distress during birth. In the patient s history, the following events stood out: 8 months old, left 1/3 medium lower tibia spiroid fracture; 1 year and 4 months old, left distal tibial metaphyseal fracture; 4 years old, bilateral congenital proximal radioulnar synostosis operated. Psychological evaluation at the age of 6 years: mild mental retardation (IQ = 40), polymorphic dyslalia. Menarche at the age of 10 years and 8 months with significant dysfunctions of the menstrual cycle. The objective examination upon admission revealed a good general status, facial dimorphism, normally coloured teguments, blue sclerae, pectus excavatum, dextroscoliosis, angulation persistence in the elbow joint making full extension impossible, bilateral deformation of the 5 th finger in bilateral flexion. There were no auscultation changes in the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Osteotendinous reflexes were present bilaterally, and muscular strength was moderately diminished. 56
3 Laboratory tests: full blood count WBC=7,100/mm 3, Hb=12.9g/dl, PLT=265,000/mm 3, liver and kidneys within normal limits, euglycemic, phosphor-calcic metabolism and thyroid hormones within normal limits. Imaging explorations Abdominal and thyroid ultrasonography within normal limits; radiologically, long bones: humerus, femur and leg bilaterally within normal limits; in the forearm bilateral proximal radioulnar synostosis, with the forearm bones roughly modelled, with diaphyseal cortical thickening and the lack of joint space in the left elbow (Fig. 1). Fig 1. Bilateral forearm radioulnar synostosis Spine X-ray: upper back dextroscoliosis, lower back levoscoliosis, and lumbar levoscoliosis with the apex in L2-L3. Vertebral body D12 with increased anteroposterior diameter in comparison to the rest of the vertebral bodies. The cranial CT scan did not highlight any changes in the scanned bone structures, the brain matter showing densities within normal limits, circumvolutions present and visible differentiation between the white and the grey matter. The genetic consultation revealed weight, height and cranial perimeter within normal limits, with cranial-facial dimorphism, (antimongoloid palpebral fissures, blue sclerae, nasal voice, low position of the ears), pectus excavatum, bilateral radioulnar synostosis operated, bilateral 5 th finger camptodactyly (Fig. 2), fingers with thinned distal phalange, moderate psychomotor retardation, language impairment, irregular menstrual cycles. Fig.2 5 th finger camptodactyly 57
4 The positive diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta type 1 was supported by the genetic consultation correlated with the anamnestic data and the performed imaging explorations. The differential diagnosis included hypophosphatasia, juvenile idiopathic osteoporosis, congenital syphilis. What is very important at this pediatric age is the differential diagnosis between osteogenesis imperfecta and non-accidental traumas. DISCUSSIONS In OI type 1, the non-orthopedic causes of morbidity are determined by the joint mobility, which causes joint pain, deafness and brain compression. Severe thoracic and lumbar scoliosis is a problem difficult to treat and most of the times, the respiratory function is severely compromised, with high morbidity due to the recurrence of respiratory infections (5). As there is no etiological treatment, attention is drawn to the prevention of fractures, the surgical correction of bone deformations, the increase in bone density, pain minimization and mobility and functional independence maximization. A balanced diet (obesity prevention, administration of calcium and vitamin D supplements) together with physical therapy considerably increase life quality. The therapy with bisphosphonates proved efficient in moderate-severe cases of OI in children, with a decrease in the incidence of bone fractures and deformations due to the increase in bone density (6, 7). Surgical treatment is useful both for the correction of bone fractures and deformations and for bone stabilization by means of rods implanted at the level of the long bones. In our case, despite repeated admissions in the pediatric surgery department for multiple fractures, the child was diagnosed tardily, at the age of 11 years. It was difficult to decide between the diagnoses of OI type 1 and type 5, because of the unusual association of radioulnar synostosis (frequently found in OI type 5) and the blue sclerae (characteristic to OI type 1). (8, 9) In what follows, this case needs pediatric and orthopaedic monitoring for the correction of bone deformations, and psychological support. CONCLUSIONS The girl with a positive history of fractures, with bone deformations (dextroscoliosis, pectus excavatum, bilateral radioulnar synostosis operated, bilateral 5 th finger camtodactyly), mental retardation, recorded in the pediatric ward, is diagnosed with OI type 1 tardily, at the age of 11 years.
