How osteodystrophy occurs in chronic renal failure?

Question 1

Question 2

Decreased GFR --> Decreased phosphate filtration --> Increased phosphate retention --> Increased serum phosphate --> formation of complexes with calcium --> decreased serum calcium (also due to decreased 1,25 dihydrocholecalciferol) --> Stimulation of parathyroid glands --> Increased Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Secondary hperparathyroidism
