Popis: |
Denosumab is a commonly used antiresorptive treatment in patients with osteoporosis or solid tumours with bone metastases. Upon denosumab discontinuation, a rebound phenomenon can occur that results in an increased (vertebral) fracture risk. This phenomenon is well-known in the setting of osteoporosis but rarely reported in cancer patients with bone metastases discontinuing denosumab. We present the case of a 43-year old women with lung cancer and bone metastases who suffered multiple vertebral fractures after discontinuation of denosumab. |
