摘要
Atypical Femoral Fractures (AFF) represent fractures located between the lesser trochanter and the supracondylar flare of a femur. An increasing pool of evidence supports their association with the prolonged use of bisphosphonates, even though a direct correlation is yet to be proved. The purpose of this review is to encapsulate the current evidence associating bisphosphonate use and the development of AFFs, the clinical features related to their presentation, as well as to report the armamentarium of strategies available in the prevention and treatment of AFFs. Based on these evidence, we propose a management algorithm for AFFs, that can serve as a guide for patients presenting with this condition. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
