Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a generalised disorder of connective tissue presenting with fragile bones, blue sclera and early deafness. Hydrocephalus is usually associated with type 2 OI. Here we present a rare case of noncommunicating hydrocephalus and patent foramen ovale in type 3 OI. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jnps.v33i1.6692 J Nepal Paediatr Soc. 2013;33(1):63-65

A 7 year old female patient was admitted to hospital having experienced bowing of upper and lower limbs, repeated fractures over the past 4 years. Clinical ndings and radiological investigations such as recurrent fractures and deformity of bones while bearing weight, blue sclera and low bone mineral density, all led us to conclude that this child has a mild form of osteogenesis imperfecta type I. The patient was immediately started on calcium (1000mg/day), vitamin D (800mg/day) and pamidronate (60mg) was given intravenously. Following the above protocol, we found that the quality of life of the patient showed signicant improvement. This patient is a rare case of OI type I.

Pentasomy of the x chromosome is a rare syndrome of unknown incidence and there are few reports in the scientific literature, especially in terms of dental care for patients with this syndrome. The aim of this study was to report the dental care given to an adolescent with pentasomy of the X chromosome. The patient presented a cleft palate, impacted teeth, malocclusion, high caries activity, gingivitis and multiple tooth loss due to caries. Despite the difficulties of carrying out the dental work due to involuntary movements and the initial lack of collaboration from the patient the overall dental care was completed on an outpatient basis. The therapeutic success of the treatment was strongly supported by the significant cooperation and relationship that grew up along the period of the treatment, as well as the desire to have the treatment done by both the patient and her parents.
