Abstract

Diagnosis and therapy of osteoporosis associated with gastrointestinal diseases is a remarkable problem. Osteoporosis is most common in celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, chronic liver disease, and in postgastrectomy patients. Protocols regarding prevention, diagnosis and therapy are based on results gained from patients with osteoporosis in the general population. This review aims to summarize the special aspects and most important clinical data regarding the bone loss associated with gastrointestinal diseases.
