ABSTRACT
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is an early complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Irreversible skeletal complications and deformities in children are already present before CKD progresses to end stage renal disease; therefore, the early detection of coexisting ROD is important in children with CKD. In the present work, we present a case of ROD in a 14-year-old female patient with chronic renal failure. The patient had already suffered bilateral femoral neck fractures before starting extracorporeal dialysis. On the 21st day after dialysis, external fixations of the femoral neck were performed.
