Abstract
Enterocystoplasty during childhood can lead to loss of BMD. This does not seem to be related to the enterocystoplasty alone. It is more pronounced in individuals who have other risk factors, such as reduced GFR. The identification of BMD loss makes it possible to intervene before osteoporosis occurs and leads to pathologic fracture.
