طفل عمره ٥ سنوات عنده كسور متعددة من إصابات بسيطة، وبياض العين لونه أزرق، وأمه عندها نفس المشكلة وضعف سمع. ما الأرجح؟

A 5-year-old has had multiple fractures from minor injuries, blue sclerae, and his mother has the same problem and hearing loss. What is most likely?

1. Leukaemia
2. Osteogenesis imperfecta
3. Confirmed physical abuse
4. Rickets

Answer: B) Osteogenesis imperfecta. Recurrent fractures from minor trauma with blue sclerae, family history and hearing loss indicate osteogenesis imperfecta; the child is handled gently, and abuse assessment remains part of the work-up.
