DOI: 10.1007/s00223-019-00546-9
Abstract: Atypical femoral fracture is a well-documented adverse reaction to bisphosphonates. It is strongly related to duration of bisphosphonate use, and the risk declines rapidly after drug withdrawal. The mechanism behind bisphosphonate-associated atypical femoral fracture is… read more here.

Exposure of medical staff to radiation during osteosynthesis of proximal femoral fracture: descriptive analysis and comparison of different devices
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery"
DOI: 10.1007/s00402-017-2761-4
Abstract: BackgroundThe use of fluoroscopy is necessary during proximal femoral fracture (PFF) osteosynthesis. The frequency of these procedures justifies a description of radiation exposure and comparisons between different techniques and between the different surgical team members.MethodsThis… read more here.
