Sammanfattning
Osteonecrosis of the jaws in patients on chronic bisphosphonate therapy has been reported in small series since 2003. We present two patients with multiple myeloma who developed osteonecrosis of the jaws on intravenous treatment with zolendronic acid and pamidronate, respectively. The patients were treated with debridement of the involved bone and long-term antibiotic therapy.
