Bone mass, bone structure and vertebral fractures in osteoporotic patients. 1987

J Pøodenphant, and V A Nielsen, and B J Riis, and A Gotfredsen, and C Christiansen

The clinical severity of bone disease was studied in 44 post-menopausal osteoporotic women. Spinal x-rays were assessed and compared to objective measurements of bone mass and bone structure; forearm bone mineral content (BMCarm) by single photon absorptiometry, total body bone mineral content (TBBM), and spinal bone mineral content (BMCspine) by dual photon absorptiometry, and corrected cortical width (C Cor W), trabecular bone volume (TBV), and indices of trabecular microstructure by iliac crest biopsy. For comparison data of BMCarm, TBBM and BMCspine in 25 post-menopausal normals are shown. The results showed a reduction in amount of both cortical and trabecular bone in the fracture patients compared to normals. A subdivision of the fracture patients into two groups constituting 26 patients with wedge fractures alone and 18 patients with compression (+wedge) fractures showed that the latter group had a further predominantly trabecular bone loss and a further deteriorated trabecular microstructure. On an individual basis no agreement between clinical severity of bone disease and amount and structure of bone could be demonstrated.
