Abstract Osteoporosis is characterized by decreased bone mineral density and mechanistic imbalances of bone tissue that may result in reduced skeletal strength and an enhanced susceptibility to fractures. Osteoporosis in its most common form affects the elderly both sexes and all racial groups of human beings. Multiple environmental risk factors like acquired immune deficiency syndrome AIDS are believed to be one of the causes of osteoporosis. Recently a high incidence of osteoporosis has been observed in human immunodeficiency virus HIV infected individuals. The etiology of this occurrence in HIV infections is controversial. This problem seems to be more frequent in patients receiving potent antiretroviral therapy. In AIDS the main suggested risk factors for the development of osteoporosis are use of protease inhibitors longer duration of HIV infection lower body weight before antiretroviral therapy high viral load. Variations in serum parameters like osteocalcin c-telopeptide levels of elements like Calcium Magnesium Phosphorus concentration of vitamin-D metabolites lactate levels bicarbonate concentrations amount of alkaline phosphatase are demonstrated in the course of development of osteoporosis. OPG RANKL RANK system is final mediator of bone remodeling. Bone mineral density BMD test is of added value to assess the risk of osteoporosis in patients infected with .
