Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is commonly caused by monoallelic mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2. Biallelic mutations are extremely rare. Only five previous reports have identified seven OI patients with homozygous mutations in COL1A2. OI is a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous disorder which challenges an establishment of genotype-phenotype correlation. Notably, more than thirty patients with OI possess the heterozygous mutation, p.Gly337Ser, in COL1A2. Their clinical severity ranges from mild OI type I to severe types III and IV. Here, we report a 17-year-old Thai female with recurrent bone fractures, short stature, blue sclerae, triangular face, missing teeth, dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI), skeletal deformities, and scoliosis. She was diagnosed with OI type III. Her parents were second-cousin-once-removed. The father was a professional Thai boxer. Both had normal bone mineral density, no history of bone fractures, and only teeth problems. They were diagnosed with DI without OI. Whole exome sequencing identified that the proband harbored the homozygous mutation, c.1009GÂ >Â A (p.Gly337Ser), in exon 19 of COL1A2 while her parents were heterozygous for this mutation. This study reports the eighth child with OI and the homozygous mutation in COL1A2; and the first two individuals with the heterozygous p.Gly337Ser mutation in COL1A2 causing an isolated DI without OI.
