Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes that encode the chains of type I collagen. Clinical manifestations include increased bone fragility and blue sclerae. OI type III is the most severe form with fractures occurring already in utero. Fracture immobilisation and orthopaedic surgery are the mainstay of treatment for patients with OI, and are combined with rehabilitation and bisphosphonate therapy.
