©2013 UpToDate ® Print Email Bone loss after liver transplantation Rate of change in lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS-BMD) after orthotopic liver transplantation in 105 women with primary biliary cirrhosis. Most women had a substantial loss of LS-BMD (mean rate 18.1 percent per year) at three months. Measurements at 12, 24, and 36 months showed stable BMD with evidence for recovery of bone loss in some women at 12 months. Data from: Eastell R, Dickson ER, Hodgson SF, et al. Hepatology 1996; 14:296.
