Bone mineralization and turnover in children with congenital neutropenia, and its relationship to treatment with recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor
Abstract
Bone mineral content (BMC) of the radius was measured using single photon absorptiometry (SPA) in nine children with congenital neutropenia. Five had normal values. Two children with severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) had low BMC, and two boys with Schwachman syndrome had biochemistry suggestive of rickets.
