Popis: | Background The purpose of this work was to investigate the association of vertebral and peripheral fractures 10 yr after grafting with bone metabolic markers and body mass density (BMD). Patients and methods One hundred thirty-eight recipients with stable graft function were included in a cross-sectional study. Graft function, biochemical mineral metabolism markers and body mass density (DEXA) were measured. Vertebral fractures were assessed by a semiquantitative analysis of lateral spine X-ray exam. Results At the time of the study, intact parathyroid hormone levels were 127.5 ± 78.4 pg/mL and serum calcidiol 20.4 ± 9.3 ng/mL. DEXA showed osteopenia in 47% and osteoporosis in 23% at lumbar spine, 51% and 14% at femoral neck, and 53% and 8% at trochanter. Eighty-five recipients presented vertebral fractures, 69 mild and 16 moderate/severe fractures. In the multivariate analysis, vertebral fractures were associated with older age (p = 0.010), length of follow-up (p = 0.022) and trochanter T-score (p = 0.038). Twenty-three patients presented peripheral fractures and 19 of them also had vertebral fractures. Patients with peripheral fractures were younger, mostly women and had lower BMD. Conclusions Vertebral fractures were associated with lower BMD at trochanter. Most fractures were mild and were several times more frequent than in general population. Their clinical significance needs to be determined. |
