| الوصف: | Basilar impression is a well-recognised though rare complication of osteogenesis imperfecta. Three patients, all members of the same family, with advanced basilar impression complicating osteogenesis imperfecta tarda, are described. The clinical features in these cases illustrate the natural history of this condition: from asymptomatic ventricular dilatation, through the foramen magnum compression syndrome, to death from brain-stem compression. The radiological criteria on which the diagnosis is based, are defined. Review of the literature reveals only seven previously documented cases, all in patients with mild forms of osteogenesis imperfecta. The unusually low incidence of basilar impression in osteogenesis imperfecta and its apparent restriction to patients with mild forms of the disease is discussed. The examination of close relatives of patients with basilar impression and osteogenesis imperfecta is emphasised in order to anticipate the onset of severe neurological complications. |
