內文:
● Bisphosphonates are medications used to treat 1. Osteoporosis
2. hypercalcemia associated with cancer (metastatic breast cancer, multiple myeloma)
3. prevention of skeletal complications
(bone pain, pathologic fractures, spinal cord compression, and hypercalcemia of malignancy)
4. Paget’s disease
5. zolendronic provides a chemotherapeutic effect by inducing apoptosis of myeloma and breast cancer cells and by exhibiting angiogenesis thereby depriving the tumor of a blood supply
cancer therapy :more than 2 million people
oral bisphosphonates : 73% of 6.3 million visits for osteoporosis
● Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws(BRONJ) 1. Avascular condition of bone
2. Exposed bone or unusually delayed healing
3. Most common presenting symptom of ONJ is pain 4. 6 to 8 weeks after dental surgery
5. clinical findings :
mobile teeth, soft tissue inflammation, neurosensory changes of the lip, foul-tasting discharge
6. X-ray:
osteolysis, osteosclerosis, widening of the periodontal ligament, and persisting alveolar bone sockets
7. The overall incidence (or prevalence) of BRONJ associated with Intravenously : less than 1% to11%
● Technique
1. diagnosed with ONJ based on the parameters of exposed bone, draining fistulas, and and/or neurosensory
2. 10 patients → 7 mandible / 3 maxilla
→ 5 oral bisphosphonates / 5 intravenous bisphosphonates 3. panoramic radiography, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) →to identify bony sequestrum and osteolysis
4. Followed by the administration of tetracycline 250 mg 4 times a day for 3 to 7 days
5. debridement of bone based on Wood’s lamp examination.(appeared dark were
with complete healing by 3 months.
5. 4 of the patients CTX values < 150 pg/mL, representing reduced osteoclast function, healed successfully.
● Discussion
1. Preventive strategies:dental examination and treatment prior to beginning bisphosphonate therapy
2. avoid elective surgical procedures
3. Treatment: conservative antibiotic therapy and oral rinses /surgical resection(especially for severe ONJ)→the results are unpredictable
4. Adjuvant treatment modalities that lack enough evidence (parathyroid hormone therapy, ozone therapy,35 hyperbaric oxygen therapy, autogenous growth factors (ie, platelet- rich plasma)
5. recommend biopsy before deciding on management
6. CBCT:reduced radiation exposure and improved resolution 7. CBCT may facilitate early diagnosis and identify sequestrum
8. examination→the ultraviolet spectrum that can identify a fluorescent marker such as tetracycline(incorporated into remodeling bone).
9. Wood’s lamp: osteomyelitis and osteoradionecrosis, Wood’s lamp
Robert Williams Wood in 1903 using "Wood's glass",
ultraviolet light is shone (365 nanometers)
1925 that the technique was used in dermatology
Wood’s glass :a light filter used in communications during World War I.
removed the visible components of a light beam, leaving only the 'invisible radiation' as a signal beam
The lamp must be used in a totally dark room.
The suitable distance is 5 to 6 cm.
For dermatology:
Thick corneum layer→White fluorescence Normal/healthy skin→Blue-White
Oily areas of the face / comedos→Yellow or Pink
To identify actively mineralizing
high tetracycline deposition →greenish-yellow moderate deposition →white
Clinical indicators such as bleeding bone: may not reliably
underesti mated due to lack of visible change on radiograph
Although appearing clinically necrotic, evidence of subperiosteal remodeling has been observed
