Abstract

Objective. To assess an incidence rate of reduced bone mineral density (BMD) in children diagnosed with dystrophic bone cysts.Materials and methods. We examined 2 groups of patients: 25 children diagnosed with dystrophic bone cysts (experimental group) and 42 children diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis (control group). The methods were: dual X-ray absorptiometry (roentgen densitometry), computer tomography; the comparative assessment of the results was performed.Results. It has been found that only in 36 % of the patients with bone cysts (n = 9), the BDM value was within the age norm, 36 % revealed osteopenia, 28 % – osteoporosis. Among the patients diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis, changes in BMD were found only in 21.5 % (n = 9) of the patients (in 14.3 % of the cases — osteopenia, in 7.2 % – osteoporosis).Conclusion. In addition to appropriate surgical treatment, it is necessary to measure BMD in children with dystrophic bone cysts.
