#. Pagets disease :-
Chronic metabolic bone disorder that causes an irregular bone formation; with less compact new bone that is more vascular and more fragile
Affects one or several skeletal areas (spine, pelvis, femur, and skull)
Slow and progressive
Causes malignant bone changes in about 5% of patients
Can be fatal, particularly when associated with heart failure, bone sarcoma, or giant cell tumors
Also known as osteitis deformans
#. Pathophysiology :-
In the initial (lytic) phase, excessive bone resorption occurs faster than normal.
The second (mixed) phase involves increased bone formation (with abnormalities in the new bone) to keep up with the rapid bone breakdown.
The third (sclerotic) phase predominantly involves bone formation that's disorganized and weaker than normal bone, allowing excess fibrous connective tissue and blood vessels to infiltrate and causing the bone to become hypervascular.
#. Causes :-
Exact cause unknown; possible familial and genetic links
Thought to be caused by a slow or dormant viral infection (possibly mumps)
#. Incidence :-
Paget's disease typically occurs in persons after age 50, being most often diagnosed in those in their 60s.
For every two males affected, one female is affected.
#. Complications :-
Fractures
Head enlargement
Blindness and hearing loss with tinnitus and vertigo; deafness
Osteoarthritis
Sarcomatous degeneration
Sarcoma
Hypertension
Renal calculi
Hypercalcemia
Gout
Heart failure
Carpal or tarsal tunnel syndromes
Spinal stenosis
Stroke
Vascular steal syndrome
#. Assessment-History :-
Possibly asymptomatic
Severe, persistent pain
Impaired mobility
Pain that worsens with weight bearing
Increased hat size
Headaches
Gradual loss of hearing and vision
#. Physical Findings :-
Cranial enlargement over frontal and occipital areas
Facial deformities, such as loss of facial muscle strength, leading to facial drooping; changes in structure and composition of teeth
Kyphosis
Barrel-shaped chest
Asymmetrical bowing of the tibia and femur
Warmth and tenderness over affected sites
Peripheral neuropathy
Acetabular protrusion
Left ventricular hypertrophy
Aortic stenosis (from calcification)
#. Diagnostic Test Results-Laboratory :-
Serum calcium and phosphate levels are usually normal.
Serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase level is normal.
Serum osteocalcin level is usually increased.
Serum alkaline phosphatase level is elevated.
Levels of urinary pyridinoline collagen crosslinks are increased.
Serum uric acid levels may be increased (more commonly found in men).
Urine hydroxyproline levels are elevated.
#. Diagnostic Test Results-Imaging :-
X-ray studies show bone expansion and increased bone density.
Bone scans clearly show early pagetic lesions.
Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging show extra bony extension when sarcomatous degeneration is present.
#. Diagnostic Test Results-Diagnostic Procedures :-
Bone biopsy shows a characteristic mosaic pattern of bone tissue (done only in rare cases when other tests aren't definitive).
