Non traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head is associated with low bone mass

Osteoporosis (OP) and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) share common clinical and pathophysiological features we sought to determine whether ONFH was associated with an increased prevalence of OP and whether the increased prevalence of OP was related to the stage of ONFH at diagnosis. We incl...

Zusammenfassung:Osteoporosis (OP) and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) share common clinical and pathophysiological features we sought to determine whether ONFH was associated with an increased prevalence of OP and whether the increased prevalence of OP was related to the stage of ONFH at diagnosis. We included 243 patients with ONFH and 399 age and sex-matched healthy controls. Data was gathered including demography, risk factors, ARCO staging of ONFH and bone mineral density (BMD). Overall, BMD (defined by the T-score) was significantly lower in the ONFH group at both the femoral head (−0.96±1.11) and the lumbar spine (−1.22±1.47) compared to the control group (−0.55±0.97 and −0.73±1.31) (p
