Introduction: Patients with acromegaly, despite normal or even high bone mineral density (BMD), have prevalent vertebral fractures (VFs). HR-pQCT studies in acromegaly have proposed that impaired trabecular bone microarchitecture possibly plays a role in fragility fracture development. As such, we hypothesized that trabecular bone score (TBS) would be low in patients with acromegaly.Aim of the study: To compare BMD and TBS in acromegaly patients with and...

Introduction: Patients suffering from acromegaly, despite normal or even higher bone mineral density (BMD), have prevalent vertebral fractures (VFs). Impaired bone microarchitecture is involved fragility fracture development, but vitamin D status could be involved in this impairment.Aim of the study: Comparison of bone parameters such as BMD, trabecular bone score (TBS) and 3D-SHAPER parameters in acromegaly patients according to level of 25(OH)D3.<p...
