Correction of mineral and bone disorders in a patient with long-standing diabetes mellitus type 1 on hemodialysis therapy
Osteoporosis and diabetes mellitus (DM) – chronic diseases with constantly growing prevalence. Patients with DM have the increased risk of bones fractures. Risk of fracture in the patient with diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) is increased by more than 6 times. There are several mechanisms leading to the development of osteoporosis in DM: chronic hyperglycemia, insulin deficiency, genetic factors, and complications of DM. Moreover, the chronic kidney disease in DM impacts not only progression of osteoporosis, but also leads to emergence of other bone disorders, that considerably complicate a choice of antiosteoporotic treatment. This article describes a clinical case of the mineral and bone disorders of a phosphorus-calcium metabolism, which developed in patient with long history of DM1 receiving therapy by a program hemodialysis.
