A Rare Case of Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type V Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary bone condition characterised by fragile bones to be more susceptible to fracture. We reported a rare case of a 6-year-old girl with OI Type V and hyperplastic callus formation. She presented with recurrent fractures since birth with no family history of a similar condition. Clinically, her height and weight were lower than the 5th percentile for her age. She had deformities with limitation of movement of elbows, kyphoscoliosis, a more extensive right thigh, and anterior bowing of both legs. Radiographic examination revealed interosseous membrane of forearm ossification, dislocation of the right radial head and hyper-callosity of both femurs during fracture healing. She was treated with intravenous pamidronate and had posterior instrumentation and fusion for scoliosis and intramedullary rodding for her femur fracture. On a recent follow-up at the age of 16 years, she was ambulating well with no progression of the spinal deformity.

Charcot joint disease or neuropathic arthropathy is a destructive arthropathy associated with diseases of the central nervous system. Diabetic neuropathy is the most common cause and largely affects the tarsal or ankle joints. Upper limb involvement is rare and there is only one well-described report of diabetic neuropathy of the digit in the literature. We present a case of Charcot arthropathy of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the ring finger secondary to diabetes mellitus.
