Data on patient demographics, types and anatomical locations of fracture and biological workups were extracted. Variables were assessed at 3 time points: T\u2009\u2212\u20091 at the moment of listing for LT; T0 at the moment of LT and T\u2009+\u20091 at 1\u2010year post\u2010LT.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 105 children (49 [47%] females) were included in this study. Median age at LT was 19\u2009months (range 0\u2013203). Twenty\u2010two patients (21%) experienced 65 PF, 11 children before LT, 10 after LT, and 1 before and after LT. The following variables were observed as associated with PF: At T\u2009\u2212\u20091, low weight and height <jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic>\u2010scores, and delayed bone age; at T0, low weight and height <jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic>\u2010scores, high total and conjugated bilirubin; at T\u2009+\u20091, persistent low height <jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic>\u2010score. Patients in the PF\u2010group were significantly more under calcium supplementation and\/or nutritional support at T\u2009\u2212\u20091, T0 and T\u2009+\u20091.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>More than one in five children needing LT sustain a PF before or after LT.
