Abstract
|
|
|
|
Bisphosphonates are the most widely used medications for treating high bone turnover osteoporosis, Paget`s disease of bone, multiple myeloma and metastatic carcinomas, etc. However, a destructive complication of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) can occur. The treatments of BRONJ are challenging and the currently recommended managements for BRONJ are still controversial. Our case demonstrated that teriparatide can be a treatment of choice for intractable BRONJ, which had not been cured for 2 years even with the proper surgical treatment and withdrawal of bisphosphonate
