Development of tibia & fibula bone deficits in children with neurofibromatosis type I – A longitudinal case-control comparison
Abstract
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is associated with lower bone mass and increased risk of fracture. Children with NF1 display faltering growth from mid-childhood. However, to date tibia bone development in children with NF1 across childhood and the role of body size have not been explored. Therefore, we recruited 24 children with NF1 (12 girls, mean age 8.2 ± 1.1y) and 104 children without NF1 (52 girls, mean age 11 ± 1.7y). Tibia and fibula bone...
