        Osteogenesis imperfecta or Lobstein's disease is a deforming bone disorder in which the genes that make up collagen are affected. It is characterized clinically by the presence of deformed bones with multiple pathological fractures, blue scleras and hearing loss. It is divided into two main groups, the lethal or congenital form and the late one. We present an interesting case of the latter that was diagnosed by intrauterine ultrasound.
