RATIONALE: Collecting and storing bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic fracture to study a special vessel subtype in the laboratory may help surgeon learn more about the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and a special vessel subtype (type H vessel).
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at changes of a special vessel subtype in bone samples from patients with osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic fracture.
Full description
OBJECTIVES:
Establish type H vessel in bone specimen in patients with hip fracture. Explore the correlation of BMD and type H vessel.
OUTLINE:
Collect human bone specimens from patients with Osteoporotic and Nonosteoporotic Fracture. Provide a repository for storage of tissue and make these specimens available for approved projects by laboratory-based investigators. Observe the type H vessel in bone slice by immunofluorescence staining. Collect clinical data on these patients including bone mineral density. Investigate the relationship between BMD and type H vessel.
