OBJECTIVE To determine whether treatment with an antiresorptive drug in combination with an antiinflammatory drug reduces periarticular bone and soft tissue adaptations associated with the progression of posttraumatic secondary osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS We used in vivo microfocal computed tomography (micro-CT) to map bony adaptations and in vivo micro-magnetic resonance imaging (micro-MRI)...
BACKGROUND Most primary and metastatic bone tumors demonstrate increased osteoclast activity and bone resorption. Current treatment is based on a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Severe side effects are associated with chemotherapy due to use of high dosage and nonspecific uptake. Bisphosphonates have a strong affinity to Ca2+ ions and are widely used in the treatment of b...
Using a computational model of bone adaptation, we investigated the long-term ability of bisphosphonates to minimize proximal bone loss that is associated with stress shielding in the tibia after long-stemmed total knee arthroplasty (TKA). When invoking bisphosphonate effects, the remodeling activity was suppressed, and the resorption size was reduced. Compared with the untreated simulation, bi...
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is an adverse drug reaction described as the progressive destruction and death of bone tissue of the mandible or maxilla, in the course of bisphosphonate therapy. Orally administered bisphosphonates, widely used for the treatment of osteoporosis, are rarely associated with BRONJ. Instead, the risk greatly increases whether the patient is c...
Bisphosphonates are a group of drugs that are commonly used to alter bone metabolism in order to prevent bone loss in diseases such as osteoporosis and bone cancers. Unfortunately, the use of bisphosphonates has been associated with bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws. The debate as to whether it is wise to consider implant therapy in patients being treated with bisphosphonate ther...
Atypical fractures of the femur below the lesser trochanter have been reported in patients treated with bisphosphonates. We performed a systematic literature search of case/case series studies to better define the clinical presentation and to identify characteristics that may predispose patients to such fractures. We considered only women treated with a bisphosphonate at a dosing regimen used f...
BACKGROUND Patients treated with bisphosphonates because of bone metastases have been shown to develop osteonecrosis of the jaws. In the present study, we examined the histologic findings of these cases. As similarities between this disorder and infected osteoradionecrosis (IORN) are described, both lesions were compared. METHODS We investigated eight patients with bisphosphonate treatment an...
Bisphosphonates are widely used for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in adulthood. In the last years, bisphosphonates have been increasingly used in pediatric patients for the treatment of a growing number of disorders associated with osteoporosis, resistant hypercalcemia or heterotopic calcifications. The use of bisphosphonates in pediatric patients has been proven safe; however, t...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The current definition of atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) associated with bisphosphonate use includes only de novo fractures. However, in recent years reports of bisphosphonate-associated periprosthetic fractures involving stemmed arthroplasty implants have emerged. In a case series of peri-implant fractures in femurs with plate/screw constructs, we aimed to assess simi...
Aim. This article covers the authors‘ experience with the treatment of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in 11 individuals. Methods. A retrospective study of patients diagnosed and treated for bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw at the Department of Dentistry, University Hospital Hradec Králové during the period January 2006 to October 2012. The treatment protocol cons...
