Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Osteosclerosis (OSC) is a rarely studied complication of sickle cell disease (SCD). The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence and characteristics of high bone mineral density (BMD) and its radiological features in adult SCD patients. METHODS: This prospective observational study was conducted from May 2007 to May 2016 in consecutive patients with steady-state SCD at two university...
