瓷娃娃，鋼筋鐵骨

口研究中95名1型和4型成骨不全癥(OI)患者隊(duì)列的數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行了重新分析，以證實(shí)該發(fā)現(xiàn)[Sillence等，1993]。人們還注意到一種誤解，即1型成骨不全癥(OI)中的藍(lán)灰色鞏膜是由于鞏膜變薄所致。Eichholtz和Muller[1972]曾報(bào)道1型成骨不全癥(OI)的鞏膜總厚度正常，鞏膜膠原纖維之間的電子致密顆粒物質(zhì)增加。有人提出，在1型成骨不全癥(OI)的發(fā)病機(jī)制中，聽力障礙、容易瘀傷和可能明顯的關(guān)節(jié)過度活動(dòng)最好用結(jié)締組織成分的繼發(fā)性失調(diào)來解釋。有進(jìn)一步的證據(jù)表明，導(dǎo)致成骨不全癥(OI)1型表型的過早終止/無意義/剪接突變的高流行率與基質(zhì)組成的改變有關(guān)[Byers和Cole，2002]。牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥會(huì)導(dǎo)致牙齒明顯變黃和明顯透明，這些牙齒通常會(huì)過早磨損或折斷。有些牙齒可能有特別灰的色調(diào)。受影響牙齒的放射學(xué)研究表明，它們的牙根短，冠-根連接處收縮[Bailleul-Forestier等，2008]。脊柱側(cè)彎和基底壓痕等繼發(fā)性畸形脊柱側(cè)彎和基底壓痕等骨骼畸形被認(rèn)為是繼發(fā)性畸形，而不是原發(fā)性畸形。盡管長骨無畸形已被作為診斷標(biāo)準(zhǔn)提出，但畸形的存在似乎至少在一定程度上受到護(hù)理質(zhì)量的顯著影響。在發(fā)展中國家，畸形可能是次優(yōu)護(hù)理的證據(jù)，反映出缺乏處理骨折的初級(jí)保健服務(wù)，而不是骨變形內(nèi)在過程的證據(jù)。具有藍(lán)色鞏膜的非變形成骨不全癥(OI)—成骨不全癥(OI)類型11型成骨不全癥(OI)的特征是骨脆性增加，這通常與低骨量、明顯的藍(lán)灰色鞏膜以及在青春期和青年期開始的傳導(dǎo)性聽力損失的易感性有關(guān)。長骨或脊柱的畸形并不常見，發(fā)生脊柱側(cè)凸的地方通常是特發(fā)性脊柱側(cè)凸。1型成骨不全癥(OI)是歐洲衍生社區(qū)中最常見的成骨不全癥(OI)類型，出生率約為1:25,000活產(chǎn)，人口頻率相似[Steineretal.,2013]。骨折頻率和通常輕微的長骨和脊柱畸形意味著它通常被認(rèn)為是輕度嚴(yán)重的，但偶爾它是中度嚴(yán)重的，特別是當(dāng)存在牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)時(shí)[Paterson等,1983]。在一些具有這種特征的家庭中觀察到牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)，而在其他家庭中則沒有。Paterson及其同事表明，患有1型成骨不全癥(OI)和牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)的患者比沒有牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)的患者更容易在出生時(shí)發(fā)生骨折（25%對(duì)6%）。此外，1型成骨不全癥(OI)和牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)患者的骨折頻率更高，身材矮小更嚴(yán)重，骨骼畸形更多。兩個(gè)亞組都有相似的關(guān)節(jié)過度活動(dòng)、瘀傷、耳聾和關(guān)節(jié)脫位的頻率[Patersonetal.,1983]。到40歲時(shí)，超過50%的1型成骨不全癥(OI)患者可檢測(cè)到由傳導(dǎo)性和感音神經(jīng)性損失引起的聽力損傷[Kuurila等，2002；Swinnen等，2011]。眩暈是許多成骨不全癥(OI)患者的麻煩癥狀，包括1型成骨不全癥(OI)[Kuurila等，2003]。許多研究報(bào)告了具有常染色體顯性遺傳和可變表達(dá)的家族。藍(lán)鞏膜的外顯率接近100%，但臨床骨折的發(fā)生率僅為90-95%[Smars,1961;Sillence等人，1979]。一般變異性成骨不全癥(OI)—成骨不全癥(OI)類型4這些患者有反復(fù)骨折、骨質(zhì)疏松癥和不同程度的長骨和脊柱畸形，但鞏膜正常。鞏膜在出生時(shí)可能呈藍(lán)色，但在兒童時(shí)期藍(lán)色調(diào)會(huì)逐漸消失。聽力障礙并不常見。由于后顱窩底抬高的基底壓痕導(dǎo)致的后顱窩壓迫綜合征的患病率增加。患有牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)的4型成骨不全癥(OI)患者發(fā)生基底壓痕的相對(duì)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)高5倍[Sillence,1994]。約30%的4型成骨不全癥(OI)患者在篩查時(shí)有基底印象，但其中只有16%有癥狀[Sillence,1994]。具有正常鞏膜的常見成骨不全癥(OI)偶爾表現(xiàn)為常染色體隱性遺傳[vanDijketal.,2010]和X連鎖遺傳[vanDijketal.,2013]，但它通常作為常染色體顯性遺傳病遺傳（表1)。家庭內(nèi)部的嚴(yán)重程度差異很大。很多家庭中有許多人患有輕度成骨不全癥(OI)，但同一家庭中有少數(shù)人患有中度嚴(yán)重的成骨不全癥(OI)[Holcomb，1931；Seedorf，1949]。逐漸變形的成骨不全癥(OI)–成骨不全癥(OI)類型33型成骨不全癥(OI)患者通常有新生兒或嬰兒表現(xiàn)，骨骼脆弱和多處骨折導(dǎo)致骨骼進(jìn)行性畸形。他們通常在足月或接近足月出生，出生體重正常，出生身長通常正常，但由于出生時(shí)下肢畸形可能會(huì)縮短。雖然鞏膜在出生時(shí)可能是藍(lán)色的，但對(duì)許多患有這種綜合征的患者的觀察表明，隨著年齡的增長，鞏膜的藍(lán)色逐漸變淡[Sillence等，1986年]。持續(xù)存在的藍(lán)色鞏膜通常表示1型非變形成骨不全癥(OI)1型膠原基因的無意義突變或移碼突變，而患有各種常染色體隱性遺傳疾病的患者通常會(huì)出現(xiàn)灰白色鞏膜[Byers和Pyott，2012]。所有患者的縱向生長都較差，身高遠(yuǎn)低于年齡和性別的第三個(gè)百分位。進(jìn)行性脊柱側(cè)凸在兒童時(shí)期發(fā)展并發(fā)展到青春期。患有此綜合征的兒童尚未報(bào)告聽力受損，但成人聽力損失更為常見。牙本質(zhì)發(fā)育不全癥(DI)是一個(gè)可變特征。出生時(shí)，放射學(xué)研究顯示全身性骨質(zhì)減少和多發(fā)性骨折。隨著長骨干的頻繁過度損傷與修復(fù)，弓形和成角畸形存在不同程度。在幾周到幾個(gè)月內(nèi)，在一些嬰兒中，長骨干的發(fā)育不足會(huì)導(dǎo)致“寬骨”外觀。從幾歲開始，干骺端的密度和不規(guī)則性增加。這些被指定為“爆米花”外觀的干骺端變化可能只會(huì)在青春期后完全消退。肋骨變薄，骨質(zhì)疏松，并隨著扁平椎的增加而逐漸擁擠。頭骨顯示出多個(gè)Wormian骨骼，盡管這些骨骼可能要到幾周到幾個(gè)月大時(shí)才會(huì)明顯[Sillence等,1979;Sillence等,1986;Spranger等,2003;vanDijk等,2011]。過去，大約三分之二的患者在20歲時(shí)死亡。死亡通常由骨骼胸壁畸形的并發(fā)癥引起，包括脊柱側(cè)凸、肺動(dòng)脈高壓和心肺功能衰竭。使用目前的治療選擇，特別是循環(huán)靜脈內(nèi)帕米膦酸鹽的雙膦酸鹽治療[Glorieuxetal.,1998]在嬰兒期開始，可以預(yù)期今天大多數(shù)3型成骨不全癥(OI)患者將存活到成年生活。幾項(xiàng)研究表明，管理嚴(yán)重成骨不全癥(OI)兒童的專業(yè)中心在嬰兒3歲時(shí)開始循環(huán)靜脈注射帕米膦酸鹽，從而大大降低骨折頻率和接近正常生長速度[Plotkin等，2000年；DiMeglio等，2004；Munns等，2005年；Astrom等，2007]。最近的一份出版物證實(shí)，治療似乎具有良好的耐受性，并且與骨密度增加、骨折頻率降低和椎體形狀改善有關(guān)[Alcausin等，2013]。圍產(chǎn)期致死性成骨不全癥(OI)綜合征——2型成骨不全癥(OI)這組胎兒和兒童的骨骼、關(guān)節(jié)和骨骼外特征極為嚴(yán)重。圍產(chǎn)期致死率是一個(gè)結(jié)果，而不是一個(gè)診斷特征。在妊娠18-20周檢測(cè)到的胎兒長骨短而皺縮，長骨彎曲或成角畸形，面部和顱骨骨化明顯不足。在妊娠早期，可能很少有肋骨骨折，但在子宮內(nèi)每個(gè)月都會(huì)出現(xiàn)肋骨骨折，導(dǎo)致連續(xù)的串珠狀外觀和皺縮（手風(fēng)琴狀）的長骨，這是極端嚴(yán)重的一端的特征，以成骨不全癥(OI)2型（成骨不全癥(OI)類型2-A）為代表[Sillence等,1984]。根據(jù)我們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，循環(huán)靜脈注射帕米膦酸治療并不適用，因?yàn)楣切纬扇绱耸軗p，關(guān)節(jié)受限如此嚴(yán)重，幾乎沒有任何正常童年生活經(jīng)歷的機(jī)會(huì)。使用簡單的鎮(zhèn)痛劑或皮下嗎啡來緩解疼痛特別有價(jià)值，可以改善舒適度和呼吸。在2型成骨不全癥(OI)的骨骼外特征中，神經(jīng)病理學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)如腦遷移缺陷和/或白質(zhì)改變已在有限數(shù)量的病例中得到報(bào)道[Emeryetal.,1999]。有些嬰兒的表型不太嚴(yán)重，肋骨骨折較少（成骨不全癥(OI)2-B型）[Sillence等，1984]，因此它們可能與成骨不全癥(OI)3型重疊[Spranger，1984]。這些嬰兒很少能存活下來，即使是成年，也可以通過循環(huán)靜脈注射帕米膦酸鹽治療“獲救”。在發(fā)達(dá)國家，許多或大多數(shù)2型成骨不全癥(OI)兒童目前在產(chǎn)前診斷（通過超聲和DNA分析），通常導(dǎo)致妊娠終止。平均出生身長和體重小于第50個(gè)百分位數(shù)[Sillence等，1984]。大腿外展并外旋。由于多處肋骨骨折引起的疼痛以及受影響最嚴(yán)重的每根肋骨骨折愈傷組織半連續(xù)串珠的異常生物力學(xué)特性，因此妊娠期胸部較小，呼吸運(yùn)動(dòng)可能受到抑制。一些臨床特征表明，患有2型成骨不全癥(OI)的新生兒會(huì)持續(xù)疼痛。由于多處骨折，他們可能會(huì)出汗過多、臉色蒼白、被觸摸時(shí)表現(xiàn)出焦慮并且四肢很少活動(dòng)。五分之一死產(chǎn)，90%死于4周齡[Sillenceetal.,1984]。骨間膜鈣化的成骨不全癥(OI)——成骨不全癥(OI)類型5具有中度至重度骨脆性的5型成骨不全癥(OI)最初由Battle和Shattock[1908]定義為前臂和下肢骨間膜進(jìn)行性鈣化的一種成骨不全癥(OI)。獨(dú)立地，它是通過增加增生性愈傷組織的傾向來識(shí)別的。Bauze等詳細(xì)描述了該綜合征[1975]，他觀察到10%的中度至重度成骨不全癥(OI)且鞏膜正常的患者患有5型成骨不全癥(OI)[Bauze等，1975]。在一項(xiàng)針對(duì)4型中重度成骨不全癥(OI)的組織形態(tài)學(xué)研究中，檢測(cè)到26例中有7例(25%)具有骨組織形態(tài)學(xué)異常，這是5型成骨不全癥(OI)的特征[Glorieux等，2000]。在臨床研究中，它約占在醫(yī)院就
