Current Understanding of Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Management of Atypical Femur Fractures.

Current osteoporosis reports - 1 Aug 2018

Starr Jessica, Tay Yu Kwang Donovan, Shane Elizabeth

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize reports published since the 2013 American Society of Bone and Mineral Research Task Force Report on atypical femoral fractures (AFF). RECENT FINDINGS: The absolute incidence of AFFs remains low. AFFs are primarily associated with prolonged bisphosphonate (BP) exposure, but have also been reported in unexposed patients and those receiving denosumab for osteoporosis and metastatic...
