Abstract

Three males with the X-linked disorder dyskeratosis congenita are described. Each suffered femoral fractures after minimal trauma with poor healing. Long bones showed coarse trabecular patterns of the metaphyses and small lucency areas in the diaphyses. Two of the males were retarded brothers who additionally showed intracranial calcifications.
