Longitudinal Bone Health in Patients with Fanconi Anemia and Other Major Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes

Longitudinal bone health outcomes in patients with major inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) are not well characterized. We hypothesized that fracture incidence was high in patients with Fanconi Anemia, Dyskeratosis Congenita (DC), Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome (SDS) and Diamond-Blackfan Anemia (DBA). We aimed to compare these outcomes in patients who were and were not treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).
