- Abstract
- Much attention has been paid to the relationship between atypical femoral fractures (AFF) and use of bisphosphonates (BPs). While a significant cause-effect relationship was not established in earlier studies, more recent data shows a growing relationship between AFF and BPs use. The definition of an ‘AFF’ has also undergone significant changes. This review briefly summarizes the definition, pathogenesis, and management of AFF.
