Abstract

Morphometric studies were carried out on radiographs taken on separate occasions, 2 years apart, from patients receiving long-term prophylactic lithium. Similar studies were made of femora of growing rats over a 1-year period. We conclude that lithium dos not affect the size or mineralization of bone from either humans or growing or growing rats, but that it affects whole body growth in growing rats.
