Despite widespread use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in pregnant and breastfeeding women, few data exist on fetal bone development after in utero TDF exposure. We evaluated fetal long bone growth in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected pregnant woman/fetus dyads in Cape Town, South Africa.
