Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) is a rare genetic disorder caused by impaired osteoclast activity. In this study, we describe a 4-year-old boy with increased bone density due to osteopetrosis, autosomal recessive 8. Using genome sequencing, we identified a large deletion in the 5′-untranslated region (UTR) of SNX10 (sorting nexin 10), where the regulatory region of this gene is located.
