Overview

Renal osteodystrophy is the term used to describe the complex metabolic bone disorders that occur as a complication of chronic renal insufficiency.

Historical Perspective

international work group convened in 2006 by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) recommended that the term, renal osteodystrophy, be exclusively used to define bone pathology associated with CKD

Classification

Table 1. Histologic Classification of Renal Osteodystrophy

Histologic Classification of Renal Osteodystrophy
Disorder	Description	Pathogenesis	frequency(%)
Osteitis fibrosa	Peritrabecular fibrosis, increased remodeling — resorption and formation.	Secondary hyperparathyroidism, secondary role of cytokines and growth factors	50
Osteomalacia	Increased osteoid, defective mineralization	Aluminum deposition, plus unknown factors	7
mixed disease	Features of both osteitis fibrosa and osteomalacia	Secondary hyperparathyroidism and aluminum deposition, plus unknown factors	13
mild disease	Slightly increased remodeling	Early or treated secondary hyperparathyroidism	3
adynamic renal bone disease	Hypocellular bone surfaces, no remodeling	Aluminum deposition, parathyroid hormone suppression, and other factors (deficiency of bone growth factors or increased suppressors of bone remodeling)	27

Treatment

Medical Therapy:

The mainstays of the prevention and treatment of renal osteodystrophy continue to be phosphate binders and supplemental calcium.

Control of Serum Phosphate :

• A low-phosphate diet is integral to the management of end-stage renal disease, to maintain a normal serum phosphate concentration.
• A phosphate binder, either calcium carbonate68 or calcium acetate,69 taken with each meal in proportion to the phosphate content of the meal, is usually also required;
• aluminum-containing phosphate binders should be avoided. Reducing dialysate magnesium concentrations and adding magnesium-containing binders to decrease the calcium salts may allow both the control of serum phosphate concentrations and higher doses of calcitriol70 .

.Surgery

• The mainstay of treatment for Renal Osteodystrophy is medical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with hyperparathroid

bone disease,these patients need subtotal parathyroidectomy

Primary Prevention

• timely recognition and treatment of hyperparathyroid patients.
• early recognition and treatment of renal diseases to prevent chronic renal failure and consequently Renal osteodystrophy

Secondary Prevention

• Vit D administration with every session of dialysis
• use of aluminium free phosphate binders.
