Bone disease caused by chronic kidney disease — abnormal bone turnover from calcium, phosphate, vitamin D, and PTH disturbances.
Renal osteodystrophy covers the skeletal changes of CKD: high-turnover bone disease (from secondary hyperparathyroidism), low-turnover disease (adynamic bone, often from oversuppressed PTH or aluminum), and mixed patterns. Consequences: bone pain, fractures, and growth problems in children. Prevention: phosphate control from early CKD, vitamin D management, calcium balance, and PTH kept in stage-appropriate ranges. Diagnosis uses PTH, bone markers, and sometimes bone biopsy.
A progressive condition characterized by gradual loss of kidney function over months or years, classified into 5 stages based on eGFR.
Overactive parathyroid glands caused by kidney failure — driven by low vitamin D, high phosphate, and low calcium — damaging bones and vessels if untreated.
