ABSTRACT

RESUMEN La enfermedad de Paget ósea es una enfermedad metabólica del hueso de etiología no esclarecida, que se caracteriza por una fase de resorción aumentada seguida por una fase de osteoformación aberrante. Es frecuente en Europa, Norteamérica, Nueva Zelanda y Australia, pero infrecuente en Asia, Medio Oriente y África. En población colombiana hay reportes de casos. Generalmente cursa asintomática y se diagnostica incidentalmente por hallazgos radiográficos o fosfatasa alcalina elevada. El uso de bifosfonatos favorece el control del recambio óseo y permite prevenir complicaciones como las fracturas. Se presenta una serie de casos en Colombia y una revisión de la literatura.


A B S T R A C T Paget's disease of the bone is a metabolic bone disease of unknown origin, and is characterised by an increased phase of resorption, followed by an aberrant osteoformation phase. It is common in Europe, North America, New Zealand, and Australia, but infrequent in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and in the Colombian population there are case reports. It is usually asymptomatic and is diagnosed incidentally by radiographic findings or an elevated alkaline phosphatase. The use of bisphosphonates favours the control of bone turnover and prevents complications such as fractures. A series of cases in Colombia is presented, along with a review of the literature.
