Contents

Introduction

  • Definitions:
  • low bone mass with a normal ratio of mineral to osteoid
  • generalized skeletal fragility in which bone strength is sufficiently weak that fractures occur with minimal trauma
  • low bone mass & microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue leading to enhanced bone fragility & consequent increase in fracture risk

Etiology

  • primary (most common)
  • secondary
  • connective tissue disorders
  • pharmacologic causes:

Epidemiology

  • largely, but not exclusively a disease of women
  • osteoporosis manifests itself clinically about 10 years after menopause
  • peak incidence in the 60s & early 70s
  • senile osteoporosis presents after age 70 in either sex
  • 39% of women over 70 have osteoporosis at any site
  • 25% of women over 70 have osteoporosis at the hip
  • 70% of women over 80 have osteoporosis at any site
  • 48% of women over 80 have osteoporosis at the hip

Pathology

Genetics

Clinical-manifestations

Laboratory

  • * serum PTH not needed unless specifially indicated [14]

Radiology

  • screening beginning at age 65 ( USPSTF) & screen women < 65 if their 10-year fracture risk >= that of a woman > 65 without additional risk factors ~ 9% [8]
  • use WHO's FRAX tool to estimate fracture risk
  • not enough evidence to determine whether screening is beneficial or harmful for men [8]
  • recommendations apply to all racial and ethnic groups
  • repeat measurement may be of little benefit in predicting risk of fracture [30]
  • none-the-less, ref [2] recommends repeat DEXA 12-24 months after initiating therapy
  • threshold for treatment may be Z-score of < -1.8

Complications

Management

  • treatment of 63 elderly for 3.5 years to prevent 1 fracture [35]
  • identify & treat sensory deficits, neurologic disease, arthritis
  • adjust doses of sedating drugs
  • gait & balance training
  • environmental measures
