Constitutional diseases of bone form a heterogeneous group of rare diseases of varied phenotypic presentations with a vast genetic heterogeneity. Detected mostly in childhood, they may also be diagnosed in adulthood. Medical history, clinical examination as well as biological and radiological investigations may lead to the diagnosis, which should be confirmed genetically. Joint limitations, early osteoarthritis, hip dysplasia, bone deformity, enthesopathies, bone fragility or a small height can be warning signs of a constitutional disease of bone. Establishing the diagnosis is crucial to enable optimal medical management with a specialized multidisciplinary team.
