| Abstract: | It is increasingly recognized that osteoporosis affects children as well as adults both as a primary problem and as secondary
to various diseases, medications, and lifestyle issues. In this review, we emphasize the correct diagnosis of osteoporosis
in children as opposed to adults, etiology, and pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical treatments. We especially focus on rheumatologic
conditions associated with osteoporosis and management issues. |
