Fracture after bisphosphonate treatment in children with cerebral palsy: the role of stress risers
Pediatric Radiology, 09/01/2011
Harcke HT et al. – The authors propose stress risers as the mechanism for fractures that have occurred where bone mineral density abruptly changes as a result of cyclic administration of pamidronate. They show a theoretical example of how alternative dosing might reduce the ratio and therefore decrease the chance of formation of a stress riser.
