    Notes: Abstract. Bone mineral density (BMD) and soft tissue composition were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) 3–4 years apart in 273 men and women aged 23–90. We found different rates of BMD loss in different skeletal regions. There were also different rates of BMD loss in different regions within the hip. Average rates of loss for male subjects 50 years of age and above for BMD total body were 0.1%/year and for femoral neck 1.5%/year, whereas lumbar spine (L2–L4) increased by 0.4%/year. Average rates of loss for female subjects 50 years of age and above for BMD total body were 0.0%/year, femoral neck 0.9%/year, and lumbar spine (L2–L4) 0.1%/year.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary In 1990, a retrospective case control study was performed based on all patients with tibial shaft fractures (n = 767) treated at the Department of Orthopaedics in Malmö 1949–1963. At the time of the study 231 of the patients were still living in Malmö . All radiographic examinations of this latter group from the time of the fracture to 1990 were studied and the occurrence of osteoarthrosis (OA) of the hip, knee and ankle joints were registered. The fracture patients were compared with an age and sex-matched control group. The group with previous tibial shaft fracture had an increased prevalence of OA in the lower extremities compared with the controls. When comparing the risk of OA in the once fractured limb with the uninjured side we found no difference. We conclude that there is no risk of having posttraumatic OA after extra-articular tibial shaft fractures.
    Notes: Résumé En 1990, une étude de contrôle est réalisée en se référant à tous les patients ayant eu des fractures de la diaphyse tibiale (n = 767) traitées dans le Département d'Orthopédie de Malmö entre 1949 et 1963. Lors de ce contrôle 231 patients vivaient toujours à Malmö. Tous les examens radiographiques de ce dernier groupe, à partir du moment de la fracture jusqu'à 1990 ont été étudiés et on a noté tous les cas de survenue d'arthrose de la hanche, du genou et de l'articulation de la cheville. Ces cas de fractures tibiales sont comparées à un groupe de contrôle de même âge et de même sexe. Le groupe des patients avec antécédent de fracture de la diaphyse tibiale présente une prédominance d'arthrose dans les membres inférieurs en comparaison avec les témoins. Nous n'avons relevé par contre aucune différence significative en comparant le risque d'arthrose dans le membre fracturé avec celui du côté intact. Nous concluons donc qu'il n'y a aucun risque d'avoir une arthrose post-traumatique après une fracture diaphysaire tibiale.
