Osteoporosis in young men: a syndrome of hypercalciuria and accelerated bone turnover.
Five young men had a similar syndrome of osteopenia and hypercalciuria, probably resorptive and absorptive, with histomorphometric data suggesting decreased bone mass with increased rate of bone formation. A search for causes of osteopenia, either primary or secondary, was unrewarding.
