[Diagnosis and classification of renal osteodystrophy].
Bone histomorphometry is essential to diagnosis of renal osteodystrophy. Sherrard et al classified renal osteodystrophy into the 5 groups according to Fb.V/TV, OV/BV and BFR/TV of cancellous bone (Osteitis fibrosa, Mixed uremic osteodystrophy, Osteomalacia, Mild lesion, Aplastic disease). In addition, because endocortical bone loss is generally irreversible, the evaluation of this region in the transiliac bone biopsy specimen also seems to be important.
