چکیده
As a result of aging population, the incidence of pelvic insufficiency fracture has been increasing. Pain-related immobility caused by pelvic insufficiency fractures may result in a serious dependency and high mortality with preexisting comorbidities. We present two cases of pelvic insufficiency fracture in elderly patients which had good clinical outcome by parathyroid hormone 1-34(teriparatide) treatment as well as a literature review.

All therapies currently recommended for the management of osteoporosis act mainly to inhibit bone resorption and reduce bone remodeling. Parathyroid hormone and its analog, teriparatide (recombinant human PTH(1-34), represent a new class of anabolic therapies for the treatment of severe osteoporosis, having the potential to improve skeletal micro-architecture. Significant reductions in both ver...
متن کاملTherapy of Osteoporosis in Men with Teriparatide

Teriparatide (recombinant human PTH(1-34)) and PTH(1-84) are available in many countries but PTH(1-84) is not available in the United States. Only teriparatide is approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in men. It ...
