Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 6

Abstract

Osteopetrosis is a disorder involving defective bone resorption [1]. Two main forms of osteopetrosis have been delineated: a severe autosomal recessive form with an incidence of 1 in 250,000 births and a mild autosomal dominant form with an incidence of 1 in 20,000 births [1]. Intrinsic disturbances of osteoclast function due to mutations in genes encoding osteoclast-specific subunits of the vacuolar proton pump are found in most patients [1]. Here we report a 3 year 10 months old female child with chief complaints of Fever since 4 days followed by Nasal bleed since 1 day prior to admission.
