Record 2 2014-11-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Bones and Joints
CONT

Type I osteoporosis(postmenopausal osteoporosis) generally develops in women after menopause when the amount of estrogen in the body greatly decreases. This process leads to an increase in the resorption of bone(the bones loses substance). Type 1 osteoporosis is far more common in women than in men, and typically develops between the ages of 50 and 70. The process usually results in a decrease in the amount of trabecular bone(the spongy bone inside of the hard cortical bone). The decrease in the overall strength of the bone leads primarily to wrist and vertebral body(in the spine) fractures.

Key term(s)
  • type 1 osteoporosis

French

Domaine(s)
  • Os et articulations
OBS

La carence en œstrogènes provoque, sur 5 ans, une perte de 15 % environ de la masse osseuse. C’est une des raisons de la plus grande fréquence de l’ostéoporose chez les femmes. Cette perte prédomine sur l’os trabéculaire avec, comme traduction clinique, des fractures-tassements vertébrales et des fractures du poignet.

Key term(s)
  • ostéoporose de type 1

Record 3 2014-10-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Bones and Joints
CONT

Type II osteoporosis(senile osteoporosis) typically happens after the age of 70 and affects women twice as frequently as men. Type II osteoporosis involves a thinning of both the trabecular bone(the spongy bone inside of the hard cortical bone) and the hard cortical bone. This process often leads to hip and vertebral body fractures.

Key term(s)
  • type 2 osteoporosis

French

Domaine(s)
  • Os et articulations
DEF

Ostéoporose survenant dans les deux sexes après 70 ans, touchant aussi bien l’os trabéculaire que l’os cortical et responsable de fractures du col fémoral.

OBS

L’hyperparathyroïdisme secondaire à un défaut de synthèse de la 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamine D et à une baisse de l’absorption intestinale du calcium, joue un rôle central dans la perte osseuse observée chez ces patients.

Key term(s)
  • ostéoporose de type 2

Record 4 2010-07-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radiography (Medicine)
  • Musculoskeletal System
DEF

An index used for the assessment of osteoporosis, based on the observation of the trabecular patterns of the femoral neck, graded 1 to 7. As bone loss develops, these trabecular groups disappear in a reverse order.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Radiographie (Médecine)
  • Appareil locomoteur (Médecine)
DEF

Index permettant d'évaluer le degré de perte osseuse dans l'ostéoporose, déterminé par l'analyse de l'arrangement trabéculaire du col et de la tête fémorale coté de 1 à 7. La disparition progressive des travées dans l'ostéoporose est évaluée de 7 à 1.

OBS

L'ostéodensitométrie remplace de nos jours cette technique.
