Atypical Femur Fracture Risk versus Fragility Fracture Prevention with Bisphosphonates

New England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonates are effective in reducing hip and osteoporotic fractures. However, concerns about atypical femur fractures have contributed to substantially decreased bisphosphonate use, and the incidence of hip fractures may be increasing ...
