Bone mineral and Ca status of 17 children who suffered an accidental fracture in 1980 were studied. These children were matched by age and sex to a nonfractured control group. Blood was drawn for serum Ca, P, Mg, 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (calcidiol), alkaline phosphatase and albumin. Bone mineral content (BMC) was evaluated by photon absorptiometry. There were no differences in serum values between the 2 groups. Of the 17 children in the fracture group, 12 (71%) had a lower BMC than their matched controls. BMC of the fracture group was lower than their controls, 0.423 .+-. 0.042 vs. 0.461 .+-. 0.037 g/cm. Of the 15 in the fracture group, 4 ingested less than 60% of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for Ca and P (800 mg/day), while all the controls were ingesting at least 60% of the RDA. Four children of the fracture group who were ingesting less Ca and P than those of the control group also had low BMC.
