Description
Summary:The mineral density of the fracture area, whole damaged limb and whole skeleton have been studied by mean Radiographic bi-energetical bone densitometer by «General Electric Medical Systems/Lunar» DPX line, model NT by the enCoreTM2002 program. At the same time we have evaluated a change of the weight of the muscular, connective and fat tissues both of the limb and the whole body. We were the fist who have been estimated the limb and the whole body area change. Bone mineral loss during fixation after double femoral fracture was 15%. One month after frame remove this figure was 7%, and after 1.5 years -4%. In the case of combined femoral and tibial fractures these indices were 22, 10 and 5%. These alterations of a mineral density should be take into account and corrected in order to activation of reparative process.
