Summary:A 22-year-old Thai man with blue sclera, normal height and absence of deformity sustained an open fracture at the right talus and talo-navicular dislocation while playing in a volleyball match. The patient had a history of several fractures of his elbows, wrists and ankles from minor impacts. Novel COL1A1 nonsense mutation (c.3202 C→T), a C to T transition at position 3,203, resulting in arginine to stop codon at codon 1026 (R1026X) mutation in exon 42 was found, and this is the first case reported in the literature.
