Guidelines for the management of children at risk of secondary bone fragility: Expert opinion of a French working group

The current French national guidelines were elaborated by a working group consisting of experts in the field of pediatric endocrinology, rheumatology, hepatogastroenterology, nephrology, and pneumology. A systematic search was undertaken of the literature published between 2008 and 2018 and indexed in PubMed. The recommendations developed were then validated by an external evaluation group comprising representatives from the various highly specialized fields in pediatrics, representatives of the societies and groups supporting the development of the guidelines, and representatives of different healthcare professions. The objective of these guidelines was to detail the current optimal management of children at risk of secondary bone fragility.
