Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) represents a group of rare connective tissue disorders characterized by excessive bone fragility. Type 3 is a rare form with new mutations; osteopenia and bone fragility are significant with numerous fractures, continuous and severe deformity of the spine, and long bones. Our case study concerns a 10-year-old male child admitted to the pediatric department of the State University of Haiti Hospital. OI type 3 was diagnosed based on both clinical and radiological assessments. Multidisciplinary care was initiated. Although the evolution was still unsatisfactory, characterized by intermittent episodes of dyspnea and left lung hypoplasia, he was stabilized after 28 days of hospitalization and referred to the orthopedics department for follow-up care.
