Case Report: Exome Sequencing Identified a Novel Compound Heterozygous Variation in PLOD2 Causing Bruck Syndrome Type 2

Case Report: Exome Sequencing Identified a Novel Compound Heterozygous Variation in PLOD2 Causing Bruck Syndrome Type 2

Bruck Syndrome (BRKS) is a rare type of recessive osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and consists of two subtypes, BRKS1 and BRKS2, which are caused by variations in FKBP10 and PLOD2 genes, respectively. In this study, a family that had experienced multiple miscarriages and recurrent fetal skeletal dyspla...
