Bone metabolism in chronic renal failure

R A Evans, J Flynn, C R Dunstan

    Mineral and Electrolyte Metabolism
    |April 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Bone disease is common in hemodialysis patients, with osteomalacia (OM) affecting most. Secondary hyperparathyroidism can mask OM, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis in kidney disease patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Bone Histology
    • Endocrinology

    Background:

    • Bone disease is a frequent complication in patients undergoing hemodialysis.
    • Hyperparathyroid bone disease (HPT) and osteomalacia (OM) are commonly observed.
    • The interplay between HPT and OM in hemodialysis patients requires further elucidation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To quantitatively assess bone histology in hemodialysis patients.
    • To differentiate and characterize forms of osteomalacia (OM).
    • To investigate the relationship between HPT, OM, and biochemical markers.

    Main Methods:

    • Quantitative bone histology on 37 hemodialysis patients.
    • Diagnosis of HPT based on osteoclast count.
    • Identification of OM based on osteoid surface and mineral apposition rate.
    • Tetracycline labeling to assess mineralization.

    Main Results:

    • Hyperparathyroid bone disease (HPT) diagnosed in 5 patients, osteomalacia (OM) in 9, and combined HPT+OM in 22.
    • Two forms of OM identified: classic (type 1) in 19% and a more common type 2 in 81%.
    • Type 2 OM, characterized by reduced mineralizing surface, may be universally present and masked by secondary hyperparathyroidism.

    Conclusions:

    • Osteomalacia, particularly type 2, is highly prevalent in hemodialysis patients.
    • Secondary hyperparathyroidism can obscure the diagnosis of type 2 OM.
    • Biochemical parameters showed limited predictive value for diagnosing bone disease in this cohort.
