Abstract

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a rare congenital pathology with an incidence approximately 1/15,000 to 1/20,000 births. It is an autosomal dominant genetic disease cause by an abnormality type I of collagen with a mutation in the COL1A1 or COL1A2. It is characterized by a frailty and bone deformity with growth retardation. It can be viable or lethal, according to the type. Prenatal diagnosis is based in imaging examinations and can be confirmed by cytogenic examination. In our country, financial problem is often a blockage for prenatal imaging examinations and the technical platform is insufficient for a cytogenic examination. The aim of our study is to describe an osteogenesis imperfecta case, in order to improve its prenatal diagnosis and to demonstrate the interest of the fetal autopsy in a country where the means of diagnosis are limited. This is to properly guide genetic counseling and for a better care of a subsequent pregnancy.
