Can Osteogenesis Imperfecta and Bow Legs Be Cured? The answer is yes, but recovery may take time, and severe cases may leave sequelae.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a congenital developmental disorder, which is not related to the mother’s pre-pregnancy physical condition. It is mainly caused by chromosomal abnormalities or environmental factors during the pregnancy period. Early surgery for osteogenesis imperfecta is preferable. Routine B-ultrasound diagnostic examinations during pregnancy can diagnose fetal osteogenesis imperfecta deformities, but a simple B-ultrasound examination cannot serve as a criterion for cesarean section.

Osteogenesis Imperfecta is a congenital genetic disorder with a roughly equal male-to-female ratio, causing Type I collagen fiber defect which makes bones unable to withstand external impact.
