ABSTRACT
In the past two decades, there has been a rapid increase in the number of organ transplanted worldwide, including Brazil, along with an improvement in survival and quality of life of the transplant recipients. Osteoporosis and a high incidence of fragility fractures have emerged as a complication of organ transplantation. Many factors contribute to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis following organ transplantation. In addition, most patients have some form of bone disease prior to transplantation, which is usually related to adverse effects of end-stage organ failure on the skeleton. This chapter reviews the mechanisms of bone loss that occur both in the early and late post-transplant periods, as well as the features specific to bone loss after kidney, lung, liver, cardiac and bone marrow transplantation. Prevention and treatment for osteoporosis should be instituted prior and in the early and late phase after transplantation, and will also be addressed in this article.
RESUMO
Nas últimas décadas houve um grande aumento no número de transplantes realizados no Brasil e no mundo, o que proporcionou uma melhora na sobrevida e qualidade de vida dos pacientes transplantados. A osteoporose e o aumento da prevalência de fraturas por fragilidade óssea têm se mostrado como uma complicação do transplante. Muitos fatores contribuem para a patogênese da osteoporose relacionada ao transplante. Além disso, a maioria dos pacientes apresenta doença óssea antes do transplante, a qual é secundária à doença grave de base. Este artigo revisa os mecanismos da perda óssea que ocorre tanto na fase precoce quanto na fase tardia após o transplante, como também os fatores específicos envolvidos na perda óssea relacionados ao transplante renal, pulmonar, cardíaco, hepático e de medula óssea. A prevenção e o tratamento da osteoporose em todas as fases do transplante também são abordados neste artigo.
