Atypical femoral fractures bilaterally in a patient receiving bisphosphonate: a case report.

Alessandro Moghnie1, Veronica Scamacca1, Giovanni De Fabrizio1, Roberto Valentini1.   

Abstract

Atypical femoral fractures are often associated with prolonged bisphosphonate use. The American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) has set the diagnosis criteria for atypical subtrochanteric and diaphyseal femoral fractures by classifying them according to their major and minor criteria. Prolonged bisphosphonate use is correlated with AFF, but the pathogenetic mechanism that causes this kind of fracture has not been defined yet. We describe simultaneous bilaterally femoral fractures in a 76-year-old woman.
