title: [Mineralization status in bones in patients with femoral neck fractures].
abstract: The authors present the results of the evaluation of the state of the art of mineralization of the bone in 56 patients over 45 years of age with the fracture of the femoral neck. The state of the art of mineralization was evaluated by means of bone indices. In each patient there were determined 6 values of bone indices and thus they got a more objective picture of the state of the art of bone tissue. They found out that most cases of fractures occurred on the osteporous skeleton. For pathological values corresponding to osteoporosis they considered such values when the bone index according to Barnet-Nordin was less than 45, Garn index less than 67, Singh index equal to the values I, II, III and Kocian index corresponded to normograms. Lower cortico-diaphyseal index on the side of the fracture in comparison with the contralateral side they explain by timely demineralization after the fracture during immobilization. Proceeding from the results achieved they emphasize the necessity of a timely prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.
