Pelvis in Pagets disease
Pagets disease. X-ray showing the pelvis of a person suffering from Pagets disease or osteitis deformans. The pelvic bones have a mottled appearance due to their increased porosity. Pagets disease is a chronic bone disease which occurs in middle-aged and elderly people. The normal organisation and balance of bone absorption and creation becomes disrupted leading to thickened deformed bones. The bones increased porosity makes them liable to fracture, while the hip joints are more vulnerable to arthritis. Treatment, while not usually necessary, is with painkillers, the hormone calcitonin to promote healthy bone formation or surgery

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the pelvis of an individual suffering from Pagets disease, also known as osteitis deformans. The X-ray reveals a mottled appearance in the pelvic bones, which is a result of their increased porosity. Pagets disease is a chronic bone condition that primarily affects middle-aged and elderly individuals. The normal balance between bone absorption and creation is disrupted in this disease, leading to thickened and deformed bones. The heightened porosity of these bones makes them susceptible to fractures, while the hip joints become more vulnerable to arthritis. Although treatment for Pagets disease is typically unnecessary, painkillers may be prescribed to alleviate discomfort. Additionally, the hormone calcitonin can be administered to promote healthy bone formation or surgery may be considered. This print serves as a powerful visual representation of the impact that Pagets disease has on skeletal structures. It highlights both the complexity of this disorder and its potential consequences on mobility and overall health. Science Photo Library continues to provide valuable resources like this image for medical professionals and researchers seeking further understanding of diseases like Pagets.
