Sammanfattning
Bisphosphonates are one of the most frequently used drugs in the treatment of osteoporosis. In recent years, adverse effects
have been reported following long-term treatment. In this article we describe a patient who suffered atypical bilateral femoral fractures
and temporomandibular joint destruction after long-term alendronic acid therapy. To our knowledge this has not been previously
described in postmenopausal women following long-term use of bisphosphonates.
