Abstract

Hepatic osteodystrophy is defined as a metabolic bone disease that may occur in individuals with chronic liver disease (CLD). Hepatic osteodystrophy commonly manifests with osteoporosis and fragility fractures. This review finds that patients older than 50 years with CLD should be screened for possible osteoporosis earlier if they experience fragility fractures. Treatment includes calcium, vitamin D, and lifestyle interventions. Bisphosphonates, such as alendronate, and denosumab increase bone mineral density in CLD patients.
