Introduction:
In the treatment of the malignant processes in the bone tissue bisphosphonate drugs are used. When
using bisphosphonate may occur lesions are formed in bone tissue and oral mucosis. Bisphosphonate lesions are a
relatively new pathological condition known less than twenty years.
Case report:
We present the case of a male patient at the age of fifty-five, treated by multiple myeloma. He received
biphosphonates from therapy for over a year. He had painful ulceration and fistula on the alveolar ridge of the
mandible on the right, from which the purulent contents were tended. The radiographic image showed the dilution
of the bone in the described part, with a visible fistula. The patient received Klindamycin tablets from therapy,
rinsing the mouth and woud of scin with disinfectant. After calming the symptoms of the infection, partial resection
of the mandible was made.
Conclusion:
Prevention is the best way to prevent the occurrence of bisphosphonate lesions, but in order to apply it
is necessary to know the pathology of bisphosphonate lesions.
Keywords:
bisphosphonate, mandible, osteonecrosis.
