Summary

Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the abnormal hardening and density of bones, leading to increased brittleness and susceptibility to fractures. This condition presents significant challenges in fracture management due to the altered bone architecture and compromised healing capacity. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is a common surgical technique employed to stabilize fractures, but its efficacy and outcomes in patients with osteopetrosis are not well-documented. This study aims to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of ORIF in adult patients with weight-bearing bone fractures due to osteopetrosis, providing insights into the effectiveness and potential complications of this treatment approach.
