PURPOSE: In this study, the prevalence of osteoporosis was evaluated in patients operated on for cloacal exstrophy or persistent cloaca and who had undergone bladder augmentation.
METHODS: Seven patients operated on because of cloacal exstrophy and 3 patients operated on because of persistent cloaca were evaluated. Patients were clinically assessed. Areal bone mineral density for the lumbar spine (L1-L4), femoral neck, and whole body was measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Acid-base balance, plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (vitamin D), and gonadal function were determined and correlated with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry results.
RESULTS: The patients were small in height (median, -2.2 SD). According to areal bone mineral density measurements, 40% of the patients had significantly reduced BMD. When the values were adjusted for patient size, only 1 patient had slightly reduced bone mass. Half of the patients had low vitamin D values. The height-corrected bone mineral content values showed a positive correlation with vitamin D values (P = .0072) but were not different in patients with and without hypogonadism (P = .33).
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with cloacal exstrophy or complicated cloaca have many risk factors for osteoporosis. However, this study showed good overall bone health in affected adolescents.
