Bone Measurements in Renal Failure in Adults

The ideas about the stability and conservatism of the osteoarticular system, its weak reaction to metabolic disorders are becoming a thing of the past. The human skeleton becomes an arena where dystrophic processes occur as a result of, for example, diseases of the blood [13], abdominal organs [3]. All these phenomena have a complex genesis and were previously observed much less frequently. As the diagnosis and treatment of the main diseases of osteodystrophy of this origin improves, they are encountered more and more often, but they are not well covered in the literature, and discrepancies are observed even in the names of the syndromes. So, shifts in the musculoskeletal system (ODS) in congenital lesions of the renal tubules are defined as the Debreu — de Toni — Fanconi [1], de Toni — Fanconi [5], de Toni — Debre — Fanconi [6], Fanconi — syndromes de Toni-Debre [8]. Insufficient attention to the problem of renal osteodystrophies (RO), especially in adults, prompted the authors to write this review.
