Abstract

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the most common hereditary disease causing an increased bone fragility. The wide variability of the phenotype can not be explained by the genotype. Most forms are caused by mutations in genes influencing synthesis and posttranslational modification of collagen. Most patients are affected by mutations in the genes COL1A1/A2. The increased knowledge about underlying genetic alteration and pathophysiology in some rare recessive forms has led to new therapeutic strategies. OI VI is caused by mutations in SERPINF1 leading to an increased activity of osteoclasts via the OPG/RANKL-pathway. In these patients a medical treatment with denosumab has been proven to be more effective as antiresorptive treatment compared to the former therapy with bisphosphonates. In patients affected by mutations in WNT1 an osteoanabolic treatment might be more suitable than an antiresorptive therapy. Pharmacological treatment has to be included in an interdisciplinary therapeutic concept in combination with physiotherapy and surgical treatment.
