[Fracture in hemodialysis patient].
In this paper, we presented the incidence, risk factors of injury, and prognosis of fractures in dialysis patients during this recent ten years. The incidence of fracture varied every year and was about 2.4 to 6.1 percent. The pathological and insufficiency fractures were 13 percent, which were very remarkable. Concerning to the treatment, I think that the indication of surgical treatment is almost same with fractures of the old people. On the treatment of some cases, the newly ones are showed here.
