title: [Osteogenon in therapy of distal radial bone fractures in patients with secondary osteoporosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess efficacy of osteogenon in consolidation of solitary fractures of distal part of the radial bone (RB) in patients with secondary osteoporosis (SO) due to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and chronic renal failure (CRF).
  
  
  METHODS
  The study group consisted of 7 patients with documented RA and 8 patients with CRF caused by chronic glomerulonephritis or chronic pyelonephritis in the predialysis period. The control group comprised 13 patients (6 and 7 patients, respectively). The patients were matched by clinico-demographic and therapy characteristics. Patients of the study group received osteogen from the fracture diagnosis to its consolidation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Osteogenon has an analgetic effect, improves well being, raises physical activity, reduces duration of fracture consolidation in patients with SO.
