Study of 16 patients with Type III osteogenesis imperfecta showed marked elongation of the pedicles of the vertebrae in all cases, a deformity which was not seen in other types of the disease. Posterior rib angulation was also noted in Type III disease. These features have proved useful in suggesting the diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta even before long bones have fractured and in categorizing patients with osteogenesis imperfecta into the correct type for prognostic purposes.
对16例III型成骨不全患者的研究表明，所有病例均出现椎弓根明显延长，这一畸形在该疾病的其他类型中未见。III型疾病还可见后肋成角。这些特征已证明有助于在长骨骨折前提示成骨不全的诊断，并将成骨不全患者分类为正确类型以用于预后目的。
