Bone Disease in Severely Burned Children
Bone Disease in Severely Burned Children

Bone metabolism is adversely affected by severe burns in children for a period of time.

More closely monitored biochemical and radiologic parameters of bone and mineral metabolism will increase the likelihood of earlier detection of abnomalities and possible therapeutic interventions.
