摘要
Paget病是一种骨转换增高的疾病。年龄超过55岁的人群中,2.5%的男性和1.6%的女性在X线片上有该病表现,但仅有1/12的人出现临床症状。也就是说,医师在X线检查时每发现10~20例Paget病病人,其中可能仅有1例或2例有临床症状。
Paget's disease is a condition in which there is increased bone turnover. Evidence of the condition is seen on radiography in 2.5 % of men and 1.6% of women over the age of 55 years, but only 1/12 of these suffer symptoms. Thus, though the average general practitioner may have 10-20 patients with radiological Paget's disease, only one or two are likely to be symptomatic.
