Osteopetrosis is a rare congenital bone disorder where bones are abnormally dense and brittle.  This results from an imbalance between the formation of bone and the breakdown of the bone.  There are several types of osteopetrosis of varying severity.  Symptoms can include fractures, frequent infections, blindness, deafness and stroke.
