OSTEOARTHROSIS TOGETHER WITH OSTEOPOROSIS - AN URGENT PROBLEM OF RHEUMATOLOGY

Abstract

The risk factors for osteoporosis in patients with osteoarthrosis were studied. An analysis of the available literature
has shown that in most patients with osteoarthrosis more than one risk factor plays a role in the development of
osteoporosis, which necessitates a screening examination of patients for early detection and prevention of osteoporosis
in individuals with osteoarthritis.
