| الوصف: | Osteomalacia is an abnormality of bone metabolism characterized by an inability of the body to lay down mineral salts upon the bone matrix. It is a definite pathological entity. It is not rare in the United States, and it is usually responsive to treatment. Often the diagnosis of osteomalacia is possible radiographically before it is suspected clinically. The present report is a review of its etiology and of the radiological findings, with an emphasis on the early radiographic changes. Albright and co-workers (1) in America and Dent et al. (2) in England have greatly aided our understanding of bone disease by classifying the abnormalities, so far as possible, according to their metabolic origin. The origins of osteomalacia, as studied by these workers, are briefly reviewed here: Any process preventing a normal supply of calcium being absorbed by the intestine may result in osteomalacia. Osteomalacia may thus be due to a simple lack of calcium in the diet. This is rare in the United States but is frequent ... |
