    Abstract Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic bone disorder characterized by a defect in osteoclasts recruitment and function. Its manifestations are numerous and they mainly include skeletal and dental deformities, cranial nerve entrapment and infections. Over time, osteoclastic expansion invades bone marrow leaving little space for hematopoietic cells. As a result, extramedullary hematopoiesis takes place in the reticular system mainly in the spleen and liver. In these patients, portal hypertension can occur as a result of extramedullary hematopoiesis associated splenomegaly. We are reporting in this article a rare case of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis associated with portal hypertension in a patient with osteopetrosis.

    Abstract Osteopetrosis is a hereditary disease with an autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant type of inheritance, caused by a disruption in the functional activity of osteoclasts due to gene mutation. The article systematizes data on etiology, classification, pathomorphology, gene disorders based on the analysis of 38 sources of literature, and deals with the modern approa­ches to the treatment of osteopetrosis. Three types of osteopetrosis with different severity degrees of skeletal disorders and pathological severity are described. The main pathomorphological changes in the structural organization of bone tissue are presented and features of the state of osteoclasts are shown depending on the mutation of genes controlling their functional activity. There are no protocols for the treatment of this pathology, but treatment me­thods based on the use of hematopoietic stem cells are under development. The paper presents with clinical case report of a patient with marble bone disease.

    Abstract Dilaporkan kasus osteopetrosis maligna pada seorang anak perempuan berusia 3 tahun. Kelainan yang diturunkan secara otosomal resesif ini disebabkan defek pada osteoklas. Pasien datang dengan keluhan pucat dan abses submandibula dengan perdarahan, disertai gigi yang mudah patah dan kebutaan sejak lahir, terdapat frontal bossing, adenoid appearance disertai nistagmus, serta hepatosplenomegali. Pemeriksaan darah tepi menunjukkan pansitopenia dengan gambaran leukoeritroblastosis. Aspirasi sumsum tulang sulit dilakukan karena kerasnya jaringan tulang, memperlihatkan gambaran hipoplasia sistem eritropoietik dan trombopoietik. Diagnosis ditegakkan berdasarkan bone survey yang memperlihatkan keseluruhan tulang yang sklerotik dengan peningkatan densitas tulang, disertai tanda khas berupa mask sign pada tulang tengkorak dan sandwich sign pada tulang vertebra. Dilakukan terapi suportif berupa transfusi sel darah merah dan trombosit, pengobatan medikamentosa berupa prednison dan kalsitriol. Prognosis penyakit ini buruk, dengan angka kematian yang tinggi pada dekade pertama kehidupan sebagai akibat perdarahan dan infeksi berulang.

    Abstract Osteopetrosis is a rare disease that occurs when a child has an unequal balance between new bone growth and elimination of old bone. Children with this entity are able to make new bone tissue, but are not able to break down and eliminate old bones, which is essential for normal bone growth. These thickened and enlarged bones are very weak. These children can exhibit: failure to thrive, macrocephaly, anemia, deafness, and blindness. We will present a case of osteopetrosis, esotropia, and amblyopia of a 7-year-old boy and will discuss the pathophysiology and treatment.

    Abstract Osteopetrosis, also called as “marble bone”, “stone bone” or “Albers-Schönberg disease” is a very rare hereditary entity. In this disease, the balance between bone-forming osteoblasts and bone resorbing osteoclasts is altered. Our patient was an 8-year-old girl who was diagnosed with osteopetrosis and followed by the pediatric hematology department. She has been referred to our hospital several times with the complaints of cough, fatigue and hip and leg pain. X-ray examinations showed typical signs of osteopetrosis. The patient also had anemia, thrombocytopenia and hepatosplenomegaly and received blood transfusions several times. In these patients, usually the sign of sclerotic bone detected by x-ray establishes the diagnosis. Our patient had anemia, hepatosplenomegaly and loss of vision in addition to the typical radiologic signs. In newborns, the diagnosis of osteopetrosis can be established if osteosclerosis is associated with widening of the long bones. Since the signs were prominent in the newborn period, our patient was assumed to have autosomal recessive (OR) form of the disease which has a poorer prognosis. In conclusion, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and hepatosplenomegaly, which are common, but are not specific signs, must suggest osteopetrosis when sclerosis of bone accompanies and, the child must be given a chance for bone marrow transplantation.

    Abstract A 15 years old Bangladeshi boy presented with hepatosplenomegaly, anaemia, multiple fractures (symptomatic and asymptomatic) without jaundice was investigated. Laboratory findings revealed leukoerythroblastic blood picture with reduced haemoglobin (7.7 gm/dl). Skeletal survey showed generalized increased bone density, sclerosed medulary space, Rugger-Jersey spine and diploic space filled with dense materials. Overlapping clinical features of both intermediate autosomal recessive and adult autosomal dominant variety of osteopetrosis were found in this patient but diagnosis were made on the basis of typical radiological finding which was mostly consistent with the adult autosomal dominant variety. The patient was treated conservatively and specialist consultation was taken in managing bony abnormalities. This patient was discharged with advised of subsequent follow-up.
