Does bisphosphonate-based anti-osteoporosis medication affect osteoporotic spinal fracture healing?

摘要

Effects of bisphosphonate on fracture healing were prospectively investigated for osteoporotic spinal fracture. Although there were no significant differences in clinical outcomes, the presence of intravertebral cleft was related to the medication use. These results suggest that suspension of bisphosphonate use should be considered during the fracture healing period.
