[Osteomalacia. Histologic definition and significance of the histodynamic analysis on undecalcified bone].
Bone histomorphometry has a major significance in metabolic bone diseases, and especially in osteomalacia. This technique needs a strict methodology with quantitative analysis on undecalcified bone and measure of calcification rate. Histologic definition of osteomalacia includes hyperosteoidosis, characterized by thickened osteoid edges, and decrease of calcification rate. Histodynamic analysis on undecalcified bone provides interest in diagnosis, prognosis and supervision of this affection.
