Economic Analysis of Bisphosphonate Use after Distal Radius Fracture for Prevention of Hip Fracture
Background: Osteoporosis is a common condition among the elderly population, and is associated with an increased risk of fracture. One of the most common fragility fractures involve the distal radius, and are associated with risk of subsequent fragility fracture. Early treatment with bisphosphonates has been suggested to decrease the population hip fracture burden. However, there have been no p...
متن کاملA Subtrochanteric Femoral Stress Fracture following Bisphosphonate Treatment in an Adolescent Girl.
Atypical subtrochanteric and diaphyseal femoral fractures (AFFs) have emerged as a potential complication of bisphosphonate treatment in adults. Despite increasing off-label use of bisphosphonates in children and adolescents for a variety of skeletal disorders, there have been no reports of AFFs in children or adolescents outside of the osteogenesis imperfecta population. We present the case of...
متن کاملLong-term Bisphosphonate Therapy-induced Periprosthetic Femoral Stress Fracture in a Sliding Hip Screw Implant: A Unique Case Report
INTRODUCTION Long-term bisphosphonate therapy for osteoporosis is associated with an increased risk of low-to-no energy atypical subtrochanteric and femoral shaft fractures with characteristic radiologic findings. There are few reports of patients with long-term bisphosphonate-induced periprosthetic fractures, all of them had a hip arthroplasty prosthesis. In this report, we present a unique ca...
متن کاملBisphosphonate-associated Atypical Fractures that are not “Atypical Femoral Fractures”
Aims: Responding to the steadily increasing number of unusual subtrochanteric and mid-shaft femoral (ST/FS) fractures in persons treated with the bisphosphonate drugs since the index cases were described in 2003, the American Society of Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) convened a committee tasked with finding a precise definition. Their present definition, a composite from two publications, in...
متن کاملAn Atypical Peri-Prosthetic Femoral Fracture Secondary to Bisphosphonate Use – The Challenges of Surgical Management
We describe a case of an atypical peri-prosthetic femoral fracture around an un-cemented total hip replacement in a 73 year-old patient, thought to be secondary to bisphosphonate use. The challenges associated with fixation of these fractures are demonstrated with a failed prophylactic fixation requiring complex revision surgery.
