Article Abstract
A 39-year-old woman with type I osteogenesis imperfecta reported experiencing back pain at 35 weeks of gestation. Two days following an elective cesarean section, the patient developed a Th12 vertebral compression fracture; 3 weeks postoperatively, she sustained an L3 vertebral compression fracture. The patient displayed a lumbar spine -score of -1.7; she subsequently discontinued breastfeeding, and treatment with active vitamin D was initiated. Genetic testing confirmed a diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta.

Rare diseases, defined by the 2002 Rare Disease Act, affect fewer than 5 in 10,000 individuals. Rare metabolic bone diseases (MBDs), such as osteogenesis imperfecta, hypophosphatasia, osteopetrosis, and other unclassified disorders, can disrupt bone development and remodeling, posing diagnostic and management challenges. This study analyzed data from the rarembd.

Skeletal dysplasia includes numerous genetic disorders marked by abnormal bone and cartilage growth, causing various spinal issues. The 2023 nosology identifies 771 distinct dysplasias involving 552 genes, with achondroplasia being the most common and significantly affecting the spine. Other disorders include type II collagenopathies, sulphation defects, Filamin B disorders, and osteogenesis imperfecta, presenting with short stature, limb deformities, joint contractures, and spinal abnormalities.
