Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We performed next generation sequencing in two affected-sibling pairs of atypical femur fractures (AFF) and in unrelated cases of AFF to identify genetic variants of bisphosphonates (BP)-associated AFF. METHODS: A whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed in two sisters with BP-associated AFF and their healthy brother naïve to BP treatment (family A). After bioinformatic filtering, the intrafamilial...
