  1. Coherent Market Insights The goal of Osteogenesis Imperfecta treatment is to prevent deformities and fractures So far, there is no known osteogenesis imperfecta treatment, medicine, or surgery that will cure the condition. The goal of the osteogenesis imperfecta treatment is to prevent deformities and fractures and to allow an individual to function as individualistically as possible. Osteogenesis Imperfecta is a group of inherited disorders characterized by fragile bones that break easily. The condition can be mild, with only a few fractures, or severe, with hundreds of fractures during an individual's lifetime. It is a genetic disorder that prevents the body from building strong bones, which is why it is commonly known as brittle bone disorder. Osteogenesis imperfecta is a common genetic or hereditary disorder where healthy bone bones rarely break or fracture easily, generally with no apparent injury or cause. OI also sometimes referred to as brittle bone disorder, and the most common symptoms can range from mildly painful with a few isolated breaks to severely painful with multiple fractures. The condition usually affects children but some adults may also develop the condition. However, it is most common in men. The onset of the disease is unknown but is most common during childhood or adolescence. Osteogenesis imperfecta is thought to be caused by several factors. One factor that has been suspected is abnormal genes. However, it is not known how these genes affect the development of bones. Other studies have suggested that there is an excess amount of circulating collagen in osteogenesis imperfecta cases. Collagen is known to stimulate bone growth but in this case it stimulates bone growth on the underside of the bone causing a crack in the surface of the bone. OI is usually diagnosed based on symptoms alone. If there are several of these symptoms present, then an x-ray of the spine may be required to determine the exact diagnosis.
