## Abstract Sclerosteosis is a rare bone sclerosing dysplasia, caused by loss‐of‐function mutations in the __SOST__ gene, encoding sclerostin, a negative regulator of bone formation. The purpose of this study was to determine how the lack of sclerostin affects bone turnover in patients with scleros
