Advances have been made in the underlying genetic basis for many conditions in conjunction with progress in bone density and geometry imaging and the development of new treatment options. The 2nd revised edition of ‘Calcium and Bone Disorders in Children and Adolescents’ presents up-to-date information on many aspects included in the 1st edition such as the physiology, pathology, diagnosis and management of numerous conditions including a chapter of case histories illustrating clinical aspects. New chapters on skeletal dysplasias, the genetics of osteoporosis, radiological imaging of bone and a practical approach to a child with recurrent fractures are included. Providing a comprehensive update, this book is a useful clinical resource for paediatricians and specialists in endocrinology, metabolic bone disease, nephrology, rheumatology, radiology, orthopaedics and clinical genetics who may be faced with a child with a calcium and/or bone disorder.Endocrine development ;Volume 28.Bone diseases in childrenCase studiesCalcium metabolism disorders in childrenCase studiesBone diseases in childrenCalcium metabolism disorders in children618.92/71Allgrove JeremyShaw NickMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910163017203321Calcium and bone disorders in children and adolescents2597551UNINA
