  • 192 Accesses

Abstract

Changes in mineral metabolism associated with progressive renal failure bring about disturbances of bone metabolism. Metabolic bone disease induced by chronic renal failure has been called renal bone disease or renal osteodystrophy. Some therapeutic interventions to this abnormal mineral metabolism also contribute to the development of bone disorder.
