The common complications of CIPA are bone disorders, including recurrent fractures, arthritis, and joint dislocation. Therapeutic approaches of fractures are conservative treatment of closed reduction and cast immobilization, and even surgical repair. It is necessary to educate the parents to protect the patient from repeated and unperceived minor traumas. In addition, clinicians need to increase the understanding of CIPA to diagnose and treat the disease earlier, thereby improving the rate of survival and quality of life of the patients. The identification of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">NTRK1</span> mutations is significant and helpful for genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis and treatment of the disease. In addition, our study has impressed clinicians with features and pathogenesis of CIPA, which is conducive to early identification and diagnosis of patients with CIPA.</p></span><span id="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0030">Funding</span><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This work was supported by grants from the <span class="elsevierStyleGrantSponsor" id="gs1">National Natural Science Foundation of China</span> (No. <span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs1">81770875</span>), the <span class="elsevierStyleGrantSponsor" id="gs2">Sichuan University</span> (No. <span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs2">2018SCUH0093</span>), and the <span class="elsevierStyleGrantSponsor" id="gs3">1.3.5 Project for Disciplines of Excellence of West China Hospital</span> (No. <span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs3">2020HXFH008</span>, <span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs3">ZYJC18003</span>).</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Case report" "secciones" => array:3 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Family 1" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Family 2" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Mutation analysis" ] ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0030" "titulo" => "Funding" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xack566054" "titulo" => "Acknowledgments" ] 4 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "etiqueta" => "1" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0005">These authors contributed equally to this work.</p>" "identificador" => "fn0005" ] ] "multimedia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:7 [ "identificador" => "fig0005" "etiqueta" => "Fig. 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "gr1.jpeg" "Alto" => 2054 "Ancho" => 2917 "Tamanyo" => 456525 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "<p id="spar0005" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">The pedigrees, clinical manifestations and <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">NTRK1</span> mutation analysis of the two probands.
