Bruck syndrome, a rare combination of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and osteogenesis imperfecta, presents unique diagnostic challenges. Early recognition of osteogenesis imperfecta features in neonates with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita is crucial.

Area of Science:

Medical Genetics
Pediatric Orthopedics
Neonatology

Background:

Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) and osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) are distinct congenital disorders.
The co-occurrence of AMC and OI, known as Bruck syndrome, is exceptionally rare.
This condition presents significant diagnostic and management complexities in neonates.

Observation:

A neonate presented with multiple flexion contractures, pterygia, and talipes equinovarus.
Postnatal examination revealed multiple limb swellings.
Radiographs showed fractures in the long bones of the limbs.

Findings:

The patient was diagnosed with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and osteogenesis imperfecta.
The diagnosis confirmed Bruck syndrome in this case.

This highlights the critical need for recognizing overlapping features.

Implications:

Raises awareness of Bruck syndrome as a rare clinical entity.
Emphasizes the importance of screening for OI in neonates with AMC.
Guides clinicians in diagnosing and managing complex congenital conditions.
