RESUMO
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder characterized by decreased bone density, bone deformities, and fractures. It results from mutations in different genes, including all steps of collagen 1 synthesis and modifications. In addition, the gene is involved in the homeostasis of intracellular calcium. TMEM38B is a gene involved in the formation of a cation channel responsible for calcium entry intracellularly. Mutations in this gene are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta. However, this mutation has not been frequently discussed in the literature. In our study, we report a case of TMEM38B-associated autosomal recessive osteogenesis imperfecta in a child of a consanguineous family presented with a history of multiple prenatal and postnatal fractures. No other associated complications are present in our case.
