Abstract
Children born as appropriate or small for gestational age preterm infants are able to catch up in length after the postnatal period, and achieve a normal length and bone mineralization at age nine-ten years. An improvement of calcium and phosphate intake during the first 14Â days after birth was not associated with improvement in length and bone development.
