Popis: The article presents the modern views of clinicians and geneticists on one of the most severe genetic disorders of skeletal and connective tissues - osteogenesis imperfecta. The review provided the literature data that showed the incidence rates, genetic heterogeneity of osteogenesis imperfecta, as well as the role of some proteins involved in the construction of bone tissue, as well as a clinical classification of the main types of the disorder. The authors described a clinical case: a girl with typical clinical and radiological manifestations of the rarest of all types of osteogenesis imperfecta - type II (perinatal-lethal, congenital osteogenesis imperfecta, Vrolik’s syndrome). The child’s diagnosis was verified by a parallel DNA sequence analysis which showed a heterozygous mutation in exon 29 (c.1966G> A) of COL1A1 gene not previously described in the literature. It caused the substitution of glycine for serine at position 656. The role of antenatal diagnostics and the importance of medical genetic counselling of the family before planning the next pregnancy due to the existing risk of re-birth of a sick child is outlined. Due to the fact that majority of the patients with the most prognostically unfavourable type II osteogenesis imperfecta, as a rule, die in utero, the described case of observation of the girl with typical clinical and X-ray signs of the disorder for almost 3 months of postpartum period is extremely rare and highly indicative. The detection of the heterozygous mutation in exon 29 (c.1966G > A) of COL1A1 gene by a parallel DNA sequence analysis which was not previously described in the literature gives an additional significance to the described observation.
