Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a secondary cause of osteoporosis, principally manifests as bone fragility. It is an inherited disorder of connective tissue integrity, and affects up to one in 10 000 persons. Diagnosis of moderate OI is challenging due to its variable phenotypic expression and inconsistent course. Here we report a patient suffering from OI showing a moderate form of increased bone fragility and skeletal deformities, mental retardation and partial trisomy 20p.

Keywords: Osteogenesis imperfecta, partial trisomy 20p, mental retardation
