[Resorption disorders in children with phenylketonuria].
The usual loading test with D-xylose was carried out repeatedly in infants and toddlers with phenylketonuria. Significantly worse values of xylose resorption were found in comparison with healthy controls independent of the duration of the phenylalanine restricted diet. A further clearing for the matter of malabsorption in phenylketonuria seems to be recommendable with regard to secondary effects of the diet.
