What is osteodystrophy?

Osteodrophy is a disorder in which a person suffers from a number of bone disorders. Typical disorders associated with osteodystrophy include osteomalacia, osteoporosis, osteosclerosis and osteitis fibrosa. Osteodysystrophy is usually caused by chronic renal failure, which is also referred to as kidney disease . It may also occur in individuals who were born with a broken kidney. Since kidney disease can cause death, unless treated with dialysis therapy, one has no choice but to risk the possibility of developing osteodystrophy. Due to its close connection with renal failure and dialysis, osteodystrophy is also commonly referred to as renal osteodystrophy or chronic hemodialysis .

Each of the diseases associated with osteodropy can be quite serious. Osteomalacia causes bones to soften as the amount of calcium decreases in them. Sosteoporosis, the bones of the patient lose matter and become porous and fragile. On the other side of OstEosclerosis is characterized by hard bones. In patients with osteitis fibrosa, calcium in the bones is replaced by tissues of the scar type.

Each of the bone disorders associated with osteodrophy is caused by hormonal imbalance, which has a great impact on the balance of calcium and bone metabolism. In addition, osteomalacia is often the first of these disorders to form due to aluminum deposits that are produced in bones during dialysis that cannot be properly removed due to impaired kidney function. The treatment of osteodystrophy depends on the combination of bone disorders that the patient has developed. If the patient has osteomalacia, the treatment may be reduced by the amount of aluminum in the treatment of dialysis and occasional removal of aluminum from the patient's body using patient special drugs.

patients who have developed by osteoporosis and osteitis fibrosa are generally treated with calcium and vitamin D. On the other hand, osteosclerosis can be prevented from maintaining maintenanceToxins such as uremia, in building a patient's body. To může být obtížný úkol, protože ledviny nefungují normálně, a proto nemohou pomoci při procesu odstraňování.
