Abstract
There are many cases in the literature that describe atypical femur fractures under antiresorptive therapy. Other localizations of fractures of this genesis, especially if occurring bilaterally, are rare. This case reports about the diagnosis, treatment and process of a 76-year old patient, who within a 4‑month period suffered from bilateral distal tibial shaft fractures, after years of treatment with bisphosphonates, strontium ranelate and denosumab.Entities:
