Ventriculosubgaleal shunt placement for hydrocephalus in osteogenesis imperfecta with novel compound heterozygous CRTAP variants

Abstract Osteogenesis imperfecta is characterized by frequent fractures, bone deformities, and other systemic symptoms. Severe osteogenesis imperfecta may progress to hydrocephalus; however, treatment strategies for this complication remain unclear. Here, we describe severe osteogenesis imperfecta i...

description Abstract Osteogenesis imperfecta is characterized by frequent fractures, bone deformities, and other systemic symptoms. Severe osteogenesis imperfecta may progress to hydrocephalus; however, treatment strategies for this complication remain unclear. Here, we describe severe osteogenesis imperfecta in an infant with symptomatic hydrocephalus treated with ventriculosubgaleal shunt placement. Targeted next-generation sequencing revealed novel compound heterozygous CRTAP variants, i.e., NM_006371.5, c.241 G > T, p.(Glu81*) and NM_006371.5, c.923-2_932del. We suggest that ventriculosubgaleal shunt placement is an effective and safe treatment for hydrocephalus in patients with severe osteogenesis imperfecta.
